Spector Tags Stronach With 'B' Word

Prime Minister Brian Mulroney's former chief of staff Norman Spector thinks federal Liberal parliamentarian Belinda Stronach is a "bitch."

Speaking with CKNW's Bill Good yesterday morning about Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay's refusal to apologize for allegedly suggesting Stronach was a dog, Spector said, "I think she's a bitch. It's as simple as that. And I think that 90 per cent of men would probably say she's a bitch for the way she's broken up [retired hockey player] Tie Domi's home and the way she dumped Peter MacKay. She is a bitch."

24 hours' Bill Tieleman, who was sharing the airwaves with Spector, took issue with that statement, saying "I think you're taking a lot of liberty there. We don't know what happened in the Tie Domi case. We do know that she broke up with Mr. Mackay. And we don't call [Vancouver South MP] Ujjal Dosanjh or [Liberal leadership candidate] Bob Rae or others with names like that. So I don't think that's a fair characterization."

But Spector later defended his use of the term on air, asking "Why is it unacceptable? That's what I think about her. I think it was much worse - a few years ago - when one of the Liberal members referred to [former Edmonton North MP] Deb Grey as a slab of meat quite frankly. I think that was totally unacceptable. But bitch is a word that I would use to describe someone like Belinda Stronach. It is a word that I use regularly."

In September, Stronach released a statement about suggestions she was involved in the breakup of Mr. Domi's marriage, saying "Any problems between Tie and Leanne Domi are not related to me."

But, according to the Globe and Mail:

"Mr. Spector noted that he has never been a member of the Conservative Party and that as chief of staff to Mr. Mulroney, he was seconded from the public service.

"I have no concerns about the Conservative Party, or the Liberal Party or any other party. I'm speaking as an analyst. And as an analyst, I think the behaviour she showed, particularly when she crossed the floor and that whole incident, qualifies as treacherous."

So, the social fascist Liberals & Dippers believe the non politically correct should be barred from private sector employment.

So much for the freedom of speech supposedly guaranteed under their beloved Charter, eh !?!?

Bitchin' statement by Spector.

[rawhide]

Sometimes the truth hurts. Just think of all the hurt she has caused. She is a bitch!

[rawhide]

I was thinking a bitch is such strong derogatory language for a woman. That is how I feel about her, yet I should not have said it. So strike what I called her.

The only beings Spector and McKay insulted are dogs: Canis Lupus Familiaris. Dogs, unlike Stronach, are known both for unconditional love, and unconditional loyalty. Stronach is known for neither.

[GMMAC]

Think if Belinda or any other female MP had openly called Peter MacKay a prick or anything similar there would have been even a fraction of this on-going uproar?

Omit the socialist MP's of both genders' hypocrisy, phony sanctimony, sexist double standards and blatant opportunism and there's nothing here but an unproven allegation of unparliamentary language.

Perhaps a one or two on a scale of ten when it comes to misconduct by MP's and something which occurs pretty much every time there's any sort of heated debate in the House of Commons.

This is nothing more than a "B" outing by a fellow "B". The Gays have been doing outings for years.

At least Norman Spector is the type of man who will speak the truth on his mind on a subject and won't back pedal because someone didn't like it. That deserves respect, unlike that b!tch Stronach.
