I'm so tired of this

Media bias I mean. Lorne Gunter covers it well, but anyone can see it who's looking. The story is already Grewal possibly doctoring the tapes (Bourque's headline: Gurmant Grewal on the Ropes - could he be more Liberal friendly?).

Grewal is clearly no hero, and Paul Wells is probably right that waiting so long to release the tapes wasn't a good strategy. But this is just ludicrous: we have such low expectations - no we expect the Liberals to be desparate and corrupt - that the media is more or less ignoring the fact that the minister of health and the PM's chief of staff were essentially negotiating the price of the Grewal's abstention, and in very shady terms no less.

And now the PM has admitted he knew about it all. But no - that's not the real story.

Update: Hope springs eternal - some Liberals are calling for Dosanj and Murphy's resignation:

"[Conservative Leader Stephen Harper] will have to deal with [Tory MP Gurmant Grewal, who made the tapes], but we have to deal with our own," Mr. Gallaway said. "The use of the words 'Senate' and 'foreign posting,' even if no offer was made, is totally odious. There are several MPs who are remaining silent but who think Murphy and Dosanjh have crossed the threshold of acceptable political discourse."

And another:

The bar is so low now. . . . Have you ever seen anything like this? "Everybody gets away with stuff. It's just a joke."
