Ethical deficit, part III

I gave it to James Travers a couple of weeks ago for his column mentioning David Duke and the Conservatives in the same breath. I have to admit I may have misjudged him. He clearly does not think the Conservatives are not ready for prime time but he also does not pull any punches when it comes to the Liberals. He provides more evidence today. (Hat-tip NealeNews)

...Hard as it is for Liberals to accept, sponsorship corruption, ethical failings and the crass determination to hold power by any means all find their genesis in the arrogance of a party that believes that it not only has the answers, it is the answer.
When a notion that false and arrogant becomes entrenched in a partisan psyche, any offence, all rules broken, every dollar stolen are excusable as the cost of pursuing the greater good. In that black-is-white universe, a government whose simplistic policies and thieving practices restoked separatism's fires positions itself as all that stands between unity and chaos.
That's the Mount Everest of arrogance and the deadliest of political sins.

He is officially on my "Professional Writers" roll now.
