12 hours in the 11th hour

Paul Martin has already had a copy of Gomery's report in his posession since 6pm tonight, over 3 hours ago as I write this. The opposition parties won't get to see it until 6:00 AM tomorrow. The rest of Canada will not get to see it until 10:00 AM.
I suppose there's no reason for Paul Martin not to exploit his position as Prime Minister to give his spin team an extra 12 hours to figure out how to teach us the facts.

From Canada.com:
NDP Leader Jack Layton said there was bitter irony in the leader of the Liberal party getting an advance copy of a report on corruption in the Liberal party.
Having an entire evening and morning to prepare the government's response amounted to an unfair advantage, Layton said.
"They'll be working overtime to put spins on the ball so that they can try to control how Canadians respond to the report.''
"That doesn't seem right to me. Canadians paid for this.''


Well said, Jack.
