Hey Harper, Stay Out of the Liberal Leadership!

Never has a sitting Prime Minister interfered more in an opposition party's leadership process. The various party's that Mr. Harper has been a part of had no less than three leadership races under Liberal Governments, and at no time did the Prime Minister make any comments or moves until after the process was completed. This included the last Conservative Leadership race where the Liberal Government accommodated the party by exempting them from the new legislation that was passed right before they were about to choose their leader.

Whether it be creating wedge issues with Afghanistan or Israel, or passing legislation that would put Liberal delegates in violation of Canadian law, this government has gone out of its way to mess with the Liberal Leadership race, when it should be focusing on governing the country. Furthermore the government was going to sue the Liberal Party in name of cleaning up government, but we all know it was a move to dwindle the party's resources. Funny, Harper immediately back peddled on this when he learned his own party could be sued for their own convention fiasco.

Stockwell Day was attacked more by his own party than he was by the Liberals. The Liberal attacks came mostly at election time, when all is fair in love and war.

Harper himself has complained about a press release that the Liberals released shortly after he was elected Conservative Leader calling it "A partisan attack from the sitting government". What it was, was a list of his quotes. If he felt that was unfair, maybe he shouldn't have said those things. Furthermore, the release came after he won the leadership, a common practice by any party when one of their opponents chooses a new leader.

That's right Stevie, change the rules so they benefit you. In that case why don't you just unilaterally proclaim the Bloc Quebecois the Official Opposition.
