(for those who don't get politics, here's a crash course) Peter Stoffer (right from wikia):
Currently a member of the New Democratic Party caucus in the Canadian House of Commons, representing the riding of Sackville—Eastern Shore. He represented Sackville—Musquodoboit Valley—Eastern Shore after the 2000 election, and after the 1997 election, he represented the riding of Sackville—Eastern Shore. (Riding changes are due to redistribution.) Stoffer is a former airline employee and union activist who was also vocal on environmental issues.
Stoffer is the Official Opposition Critic for Veterans' Affairs. He is a former critic for Fisheries and Oceans, Shipbuilding, Seniors, Amateur Sport, Canada Post Corporation, Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, and National Defence.
Stoffer is a populist and has been an advocate of Third Way policies championed by Tony Blair. He was affiliated with the internal party reform group NDProgress that successfully pushed the NDP to adopt a 'one member, one vote' system to choose its leader, and which has called for limits on union influence within the party.
In Ottawa on Parliament Hill, Stoffer has been consistently voted “Most Fun MP to work for” by The Hill Times newspaper, and is known for the “All Party, Party” – a non-partisan fundraiser for various charities.
He is known as one of the mist civil and collegiate members on parliament hill.
Recently Stoffer was interviewed on "the hill" to respond to Conservative MP Rob Anders remarks on the late Jack Layton (Former leader of the NDP-New Democratic Party) and how the current NDP leader, Thomas Mulcair was somewhat responsible or was rooting for Latyon's passing. Stoffer did not hold his tongue like he usually does. In fact, he had a few choice words for Anders and and frankly, I believe he represented the spirit of most Nova Scotians well, with regards to the remarks made by Anders.
As you all can see, that's not the normal language a politician would use to describe someone who says some truly foolish things, but do you think he was in the right in his rant? What are your thoughts? Are there any other such incidents where politicians have opened their mouths and said such things in response to such stupidity.Discuss.

Sugar free syrup! wtf!
If you are putting artifical sweetners in your body then you are causing more damage than you would from real sugar.
Turkey bacon is ok tho, it tastes good at least.
