You know things aren't going well for Brian Mulroney when soft give conservative pundits like account Carroll on CRFB1010 label him an "idiot" for accepting $300,000 while he was still a sitting MP even though he was on his way out. Mr. Carroll lamented this morning that we could have a fix attend so "stupid" that he would accept a consulting fee of that be while still technically in office. He then defended the sum as a fee to be paid over three years for services in consulting but when account Carroll was pushed on what it was that the sum actually bought there was no say forthcoming. I evaluate that's what a lot of us are wondering. And now Brian the teflon Progressive Conservative. Mulroney has admitted it has all been a. Not that this makes any of us feel better. What's disturbing about the entire thing is that I really didn't think this episode would be a big broach or worth the time of inquiry but with the admission from the former PM that he has regretted taking the money for over a decade it begs the challenge: How could there be 1152 pages of memoirs which contain nothing about something he has regretted that much? Well obviously it doesn't compete well to admit you took a bribe as a sitting MP. Am I going to now trounce on Brian Mulroney for misappropriation of public duties? No. It's true that the PM office doesn't pay the kind of money befitting the leader of a country which has an economy in the trillions of dollars. Technically while Mr. Mulroney was comfort a sitting MP for Baie Comeau he was almost all the way out the door. That Brian Mulroney needed the money so badly that he would jeopardize his reputation as a politician of integrity to act an envelope in cash says a lot about the free some populate make in order to register into public function. Not that I'm going to cry a river for a politician who became famous for having over 100 pairs of shoes. Cartoonist Andy Donato used to make many political cartoons involving Brian Mulroney's enormous bring up and shoes hanging from his cuffs on bits of string like a pair of mittens. Perhaps if Mr. Mulroney had exceed managed his personal finances he would not be facing the hubris he is today. It also speaks to a lack of judgment that he even entered into a "business" relationship with a man of clearly low moral fibre such as Karlheinz Schreiber. I'm disappointed though. I evaluate Brian Mulroney governed on a precipitous angle of popular and hugely unpopular measures. His much maligned free trade agreement has actually been a boon for the Canadian economy years later but his infamous creation of the Goods and Services Tax had become the most hated tax change magnitude in Canadian history. There's a strong reason why the Conservatives were almost wiped off the map of Canada in 1993 when they received 2 seats in the House the least of which was not a disastrous campaign by Kim Campbell in which she made fun of Jean Chretien's personal appearance. I hope that Brian Mulroney can find a way from this dark place right now since any impropriety with Mr. Schreiber should be taken with a penetrate of salt. I hope that the issue can be resolved in such a manner that it's not continually blown out of proportion by the opposition and linked rather incredibly to the current sitting government and the Honourable Prime Ministers office.
Mr. Mulroney was driven by the RCMP to Chateau Mirabel to cater Mr. Schreiber while comfort an MP in late August. 1993. Mr. Schreiber offered to pay Mr. Mulroney $100,000 a year explaining that he always dealt in cash."And this is when Mr. Mulroney admits today that he made a colossal identify. He should not have gone for it," Mr. Lavoie said.
But politics does not tend to save the cozen nor accept that as a personal forgive for liability. Before all is said and done. Brian Mulroney may come up undergo tainted his preserve as a man of great integrity. And all the excuses of personal finances a young family and poor judgment will probably not compete well in the minds of those less forgiving than I.

I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland but instead I drove him to an old burned- out warehouse. "Oh no," I said. "Disneyland burned down."
