Rick Mercer's Blog has some interesting Cabinet picks.

[Swede]

Garth Turner – Minister of National Revenue, and Secretary of State (Leather Bears)
“If you own Nortel, or a mutual fund holding it, don’t bail out now… If you do not own Nortel, then this is the time to start accumulating it.”
- Garth Turner, Conservative candidate (Halton) November 27th 2000 at the start of the stock's plummet from $50 to pennies a share
“I am constantly amazed at the assumption people make that they can manage their own finances… most people can’t. They don’t have a clue how to pick stocks.”
- Garth Turner in a 2002 personal investment column regarding those unfortunate enough to have lost on Nortel

Stockwell Day – Minister of Foreign Affairs
Stockwell Day is perhaps the most experienced and most talented member on the Conservative front bench.
Stockwell is currently Foreign Affairs critic for the Conservative Party and he has done a bang-up job. When he was questioned as to why his party did not offer condolences to the Palestinians when Yasser Arafat died Stock responded by sending out a column by David Frum that speculated that Yasser died of AIDS.
With Stock representing Canada on the world stage can Peace in the Middle East be far away?


David Sweet – Minister responsible for the Status of Women
“There's a particular reason why Jesus called men only. It's not that women aren't co-participators. It's because Jesus knew women would naturally follow. Men, on the other hand, had to be called.”
- Conservative Candidate David Sweet former President & CEO of Promise Keepers Canada

1. Be afraid....be very afraid!

I forgot about some of these nutbars. How is Stephen W. Harper going to contain them?

[Swede]

2. How about Cheryl Gallant?

Cheryl Gallant – Women’s Caucus Chair

“We saw that young American having his head cut off. What's happening, what is happening down there no different.”

- Conservative MP Cheryl Gallant (Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke) at a 2004 pro-life rally on Parliament Hill, comparing abortion to the beheading of American Nicolas Berg by insurgents in Iraq



Of course this is just a fraction of what the final cabinet will look like. Harper will have to come up with another 25 cabinet ministers. There is a rumour however that he might make history and actually be minister of everything; removing all MPs from the process. If you have any inside information on who will be in the Conservative cabinet, or should be in the Conservative cabinet, be sure to email with any and all information.

Sorry, nothing personal, I just wanted to call Gallant a pig again.

Actually, pigshit would probably be more appropriate.

What a filthy, vile, stinking excuse for a human being.

3. Myron Thompson, Rob Anders...

...there are just so many to pick from. :think: Yay! :7

BTW Spazito :hi:, why didn't you vote for Derek Zeisman? :shrug:


Surely he would've made it to cabinet, and surely that would've been fun! :woohoo:

[Telly Savalas]

5. Maybe Harper will appoint Zeisman to be the U.S. ambassador.

He certainly seems to have a good grip on U.S.-Canada trade issues.

[Mother Jones]

6. Looking foward to the headlines!

Once these lunatics get a taste of power, nothing will muzzle them.


.....at least it'll be good for some laughs.
