Morton Hears a Who - Part Deux

BC Liberal Party Flack Hack Mike Morton appears to have been thumbing through his well worn copy of "The Neandercon Stratgeist" once again:

"The Liberals also appeared to be organizing direct protests against the New Democrats. While the NDP campaign bus was travelling toward Nanaimo, Liberal strategist Mike Morton called a radio reporter on his cellphone to ask where the bus was heading. Five minutes later, two moving vans waiting at the side of the Trans- Canada Highway sandwiched the NDP bus with large crudely painted red signs just outside of Duncan.

One sign said "Moving to Alberta if the NDP is elected." The other, misspelled, sign read: "NDP is Driving Us to Oblivain."

The driver of the van, who later stopped by the NDP bus in Nanaimo, blamed the people who brought him the sign for the typo. He did not elaborate.

Mr. Morton denied later that he was responsible for the vans sandwiching the NDP bus.

"The James gang is the Clark gang," Mr. Morton said.
