Barry Penner is AWESOME!

As everyone should know by now, Vander Zalm’s HST-themed super-villain troupe has finally announced their ‘Hit List‘ of MLAs that they are going to try to recall over this whole sales tax snafu. I took a look over the list when it was first published and confirmed with satisfaction that Barry Penner was nowhere in sight (he was probably off in The Environment at the time). I figured that somebody over in Fight HST’s underground lair had seen my site and had been converted to the ways of the Barry Penner.

However, I had a bit of a surprise today… the Fight HST Hombres have on their website a list of 24 names up for recall… including one Minister of The Environment Barry Penner. Hmm… did they think that by not including him in the press release or any news story that they will somehow sneak it by me?  Well, the joke is on them. They obviously did not know that I have a crack team of Barry Penner researchers that do nothing all day but comb through TV, newspapers and web sites for any and all mention of everybody’s favorite MLA.  It’s not that I’m worried, though. They probably just have him on there to make the other guys look really bad in comparison. After all, there is no way that Barry Penner is getting recalled. They couldn’t risk it; The Environment would fall apart without his expert Ministering Of!

Of course, this is one contest where I’ll root for John Les over Barry Penner any day of the week. Go Les! You can do it!
