BTC: More supportive than thou

“The reality is, as I just said, there was a very serious security incident, the Sarpoza prison. We are all aware of that. What that should remind everybody in the chamber of is how dangerous some of the prisoners in that prison indeed are, indeed the danger of the Taliban that the local population and our Canadian Forces have to deal with every day. This should bring that appreciation to every member of the House and we should support Canadian troops.”

That’s the Prime Minister, speaking in the House today about last week’s jail break in Afghanistan.

Here’s the skit This Hour Has 22 Minutes would be doing next week if they hadn’t already done it months ago.
