What Brown and Jaffer were discussing...

I linked earlier to a story about Conservative MP Gord Brown watching the planes crashing into the twin towers while his buddy Rahim Jaffer was ogling bouncy girls on a laptop in the House of Commons yesterday. Apparently, this activity was keeping Brown too busy to deal with correspondence from constitutents. He did, however, pick up a pointer from Jaffer on how to get your staffer to impersonate you.
A red-faced Tory MP is apologizing after his assistant impersonated him --and provided false information -- in an e-mail exchange with a constituent over the hot-button issue of Afghan detainees.
An e-mail from Gord Brown's parliamentary office, dated May 2, claimed that every alleged case of abuse involving Afghan detainees had been investigated and proven to be unfounded. That despite the fact the Afghan government has yet to finish an
investigation into the torture claims.
The turnip truck called, it's missing some bumpkins who fell off. Somebody help these guys before they get hurt.
