    I have wondered about that myself...

    Where are the guilty gardeners, pool boys, chauffeurs and housekeepers that probably also worked for this guy at one time or another?</blockquote>

    Maybe ther're all Mexicans, so the media didn't pay attention and they're still in jail.

    Something that I found very weird is that "an old friend from 20 years ago" suddenly takes an interest in this. I wonder what that's all about.

    she gave up her citezenship ...illegal in mexico...didn't file taxes......lol, should ship her to Conrad, they make a great pair.

    And now, she's crying because, according to the agreement with Canada and Mexico, she may actually have to do time in Canada. She continues to cry that she's innocent. If I were Paul Martin, I'd advise her to keep her mouth shut and give up while she's ahead.

    Now the CPC is going to pay her fine so that she can be transferred to Canada.

    Well, that's the end of my contributions to them if indeed they do pay her fine.

    I wonder if Elections Canada will send in the RCMP claiming that the $3500 was a "campaign ad".

    Money well spent IMO.

    Her friend can pay the fine as far as I'm concerned.

    I really cannot figure out the logic behind this. They (the CPC) isn't getting any points over this, so it makes no sense to me, and I've let Bernier know my feelings.

    However, I'm still pissed with them. :)

    so they will still get your cheques then? :)

    They want her back as soon as possible so she can start raising money for the Liberals for the next election.

    <blockquote><cite>Posted By: DeanK</cite>so they will still get your cheques then? :)</blockquote>Nope.

    Let her pay her fine herself. They should also bill her for all the airfares our officials spent on babysitting her emotions imho.

    yeah I was wondering about those airfares this morning too.
    apparently another guy is going down there today, just to talk to her and let her know that "dont worry we are getting you sent home".

    Sheesh you would think they would know what a phone is by now.

    Hmmm...2 minutes with Martin....3 days on the beach maybe?
  10.  
    From what I've seen if you spent 2 minutes with her, you'd need 3 days on the beach to recover.

    canoe.ca has what may well be one of the most moronic web polls ever....

    Would you join a boycott of Mexican products and travel destinations in order to help free Brenda Martin?

    I have no plans or desire to go to Mexico soon, does that count as a travel boycott? Plus I hear Taco Bell is not authentic Mexican food

    Acapulco in January is divine. I'll boycott Mexico the rest of the year.
