One lies and the other swears to it: MacMillan on PNP

One have hardly place any credibility in the weak efforts of Brooke MacMillan to extricate himself from the obvious conflict of interest in accepting PNP funds with the interview published today by the Eastern Graphic.
MacMillan takes Islanders for rubes and village idiots with the story he spins out for the Graphic. Congratulations to the Graphic for the scoop.
Based on the high standards set by our greedy politicians and their high priced help, Islanders can expect a rash of white collar crimes over the next period with people claiming “The Premier made me do it!” Will the Court accept this defense?
The whole story along with the lies told by Premier Ghiz, Richard Brown, Paul Jelley and now the young lawyer Erin Mitchell is quite a ball of wax.
Mitchell certainly looks intent on dragging the family name of her father a retired Supreme Court justice into the dirt acting as a servant to these politicians with no ethics.
Here’s a sample of the silly lies and Swiss holes in this cheese sandwich:
Snowy Owls on PEI, bad sign

I’ve got to get out more often. The Guardian reported that there are snowy owls at the Hillsborough Bridge, Unusual visitor has descended on the Island this year. Nice photo Brian.
“Large, white, shadowy, deadly creatures have invaded Prince Edward Island.
The Snowy Owl, usually found in more northern regions, has appeared in large numbers on P.E.I. this fall and appears ready to stay here for the winter.
Reports have come in from a variety of locations across the Island about owl sightings, says Rosemary Curley, natural areas biologist with the fish and wildlife division of the Department of the Environment.”
That is so cool. I’ve never seen one in the open, except at zoo’s. Owls are pretty cool anyways: they are the cats of the bird family. Owls seem smarter than the rest of the birds, perhaps because they don’t say much. Hmmm could that be a hint.
Owls aren’t smarter than Deeter the parrot. That was a smart bird.
Apparently the owls are coming south to look for food, which means the ecological balance up north is shifting. The Ottawa Citizen reported the same thing, Owls moving south in search of prey
