4763...El Roundo Tells A Nose Stretcher

It's all over the Postmedia papers.  Stephen Maher and Glen McGregor are writing about the man of the hour, our beloved Prime Minister's parliamentary secretary, said yesterday that "...said Wednesday he was unaware of a media report alleging a reimbursement scheme for donations made to his 2008 election campaign."


El Roundo, seriously, if I know about it, you gotta know about it.  

Or perhaps you were on a food bender and missed reading the paper or your clipping service or notes from your staff for the last few days.

More likely you are lying.

The Ottawa Citizen and Postmedia reported last Friday allegations that employees of Deltro Electric Ltd. and their friends made $1,000 donations to Del Mastro's campaign and were paid back $1,050 by the company. One former employee signed a statutory declaration naming those alleged to have participated in the scheme.
Deltro owner David Del Mastro emphatically denied the allegations. Four people who each gave $1,000 to the campaign also denied they'd been reimbursed when contacted.
In his brief remarks on Wednesday — his first public comments since the donation story — Dean Del Mastro said: "I see lots of silly stories out there every day. What's that have to do with me?"
Let's deconstruct that last sentence.  If it is about you it is about you.
