St. Catharines Libs joke about PM assassination

It's a joke with his name inserted - search for any other portion of the text and you'll find versions with George Bush, Tony Blair, John Howard, Gordon Brown, Kevin Rudd, Helen Clark and....
wait for it....
Paul Martin.
About the only thing you can accuse them of is being unoriginal.

That is not funny.. This is something that should'nt be joked about for anyone..

I'm well aware it's an old joke but did you find it in a CPC or reform newsletter?

This is just another reason why teh Conservatives should ban jokes.

They couldn't do that or it'd be the end of the Liberal Party of Canada.

This joke has been told about Bush and Blair, among others, and you didn't see anyone get their knickers in a knot then.
Why are the Cons so touchy? Is it true they don't really have a sense of humour... did anyone take this as a serious threat?

Some here need to develop thicker skins - this is politics lite. I guess this is why some are suited to actually doing it and others ape websites.

Meanwhile on the RCMP donation thread calling into question some donations its getting attacked as a weak non-story but some of the hypocrites here freaking out over a joke.
I guess they were similairly outraged over jokes about the possibility of Liberal and NDP MPs getting killed when they visited Afghanistan.

I think we're noticing a trend here...
I think Liberals just don't know what a funny joke is.

Joke is harmless...get some thicker skin or stay out of politics. It's been rougher than this for literally thousands of years...I guess you're just arriving to the party now.
