Reading Stephen Harper's mind: "Chuck Cadman is a liar"

Yes, Chuck Cadman is liar, at least for Conservatives he is. It's the only option available after deductive reasoning.

Let's take the following Conservative views for a fact:
- Chuck Cadman has told family members that a million dollar insurance policy was offered in return for a vote. We can trust Dona on this since nobody is arguing this to be false, not even the Conservative Party; she's still the nominated candidate for the Conservatives.
- The Conservatives "categorically" deny having offered anything close to a million dollar life insurance.

Well, then there's no other option available then that Chuck Cadman has been lying about what had been offered to him by Conservatives.

So just say it, Stephen, just say what's on your mind: "Chuck Cadman is liar"

Update 1: searching Technorati I just found this article: Why is Chuck Cadman being called a liar?
Update 2: an other option I didn't think off (read the comments)

Whooee! I guess maybe you ain't heard the latest alibi. It wasn't Finley & Flanagan who offered the million but some other guys at some other meeting. Nobody knows who the other guys are or why they offered Cadman a million dollar policy to topple the Liberals.

Using the "other guys" excuse means no Cadmans are lying.

Of course, you have to ignore the fact that Doug Finley was central to teh Alan Riddell incidsent where Riddell was offered $450,000 to bow out of a race. Finley's name has come up in the Larry O'Brien bribery case, too.

But, Harper assured Dona Cadman he'd "looked into it" and Finley and Flanagan deny offering any million bucks. There is no evidence that harper really did look into it. If he had done even a little looking into it, he'd have asked Jodi Cadman and her husband about it.

When Mrs Cadman asked Harper if he was aware of the bribe offer, he became aware of the allegation of a bribe offer. He was obligated to do more than ask the accused bribers and accept their denials. The widow of a respected MP had informed Harper that two of his top men had offered an illegal bribe. Even if he didn't believe it, he needed to really investigate... Unless, of course, he already knew what such an investigation would turn up.

Typo - Not $450,000 --- $50,000.

No I haven't; where did you hear this?
