When The Mini Shrub moves protect an MP who is less useful than a bale of hay, you have to know that a priorities are screwed up.
Rob Anders' track record in the house is a pathetic collection of pratfalls that most frat boys would be embarrassed by.
However, when Harper moves to protect an MP like Anders, and by inaction leaves an MP that tries to work hard for his constituents like Garth Turner, out twisting in the breeze, I think the message is pretty clear. Suck up to Stephen, or else.
Coming from a two-bit micromanager, that's not surprising.
Politically, protecting Rob Anders is a silly move. Few people seem to have anything good to say about the man - you could easily replace him with someone else with fewer political liabilities. (Heaven forbid that goofball ever seeing a seat in cabinet!)
Sadly, it also means that there are reasons that Harper hasn't managed to calm down the extreme elements of the CPoC - he can't. Not without losing his own personal base of support.

It would appear that your MP is spouting off again. No shortages of usless MP's and MLA's out of Calgary.
