"Stonewall" Oppal Rides Again

Wally Oppal, like every politician before him and all that will follow, is an endlessly charming gentleman.

And for all we know he is a good and decent soul.

But like all politicians before and after him, he sings from the Jean Chretien hymn book: "Do nothing; then nothing can be held against you."

Daphne Bramham has done us all a great public service by stepping harshly and repeatedly on the neck of Polygamy.

But when the paper carried a 40-point blaring headline this morning that "Stonewall" (as one of our Commenters called the AG today) "might" take the offenders to court, Ms. Bramham was quick to point out that Wally has been sitting on his hands for many months on this file, among others.

Wally is a great PR man. He makes appearances at rallies, dialogues and discussions. He frowns and looks terribly concerned about everything and everybody and he sees nothing but health and happiness for all of our futures.

And then he goes back to his shelter and turns on "The Price is Right."
