So far the JWR scandal is about "She said, He said". Except there are two Hes saying she is misconstruing events. Wait, is there a third person providing evidence that JWR is not being entirely straightforward?
Why, in 4 hours of testimony did JWR not mention this request from the PCO and her decision to spike it? This refusal to perform her duty to provide legal advice to cabinet and the PCO is evidence that JWR was not listening to reasonable arguments.
If this is the case, then the question becomes "Why?". Why did she not entertain other points of view? Why did she refuse the input of someone of the stature of Beverley McLaughlin? Why did she make her unshakable decision so quickly?
Was it a manifestation of delusions of absolute competence? Was it a sign of intransigence? Is still just plain stubborn? Were there other reasons for her refusal to listen and her, likely, steps to undermine the government?
Got to hand it to Harper, at least the multitudinous scandals surrounding his government were much more transparent. Duffy/Wright made sense from the get-go.Recommend this Post

The fact that she successfully suppressed information to further her own agenda was all we need to know her character. Inexplicably, few are mentioning this. I guess it doesn't fit in with particular agendas. Never let the facts get in the way of a good story.
I'm sorry how was Duffy/wright transparent? Duffy got charged with accepting a bribe but Wright wasn't for offering the bribe.
It only became transparent after the judge threw out the 30 some odd charges and said the RCMPcharged the wrong person.
