beyond irony

Extract from liberal party email received today (emphasis added):

"After intense pressure from media and political opponents, it appears that Mr. Harper will release a platform tomorrow – a week before the vote and one day after advance polls close.

Many Canadians, including university students, military personnel serving overseas and those whose religious observances include the Jewish holiday of Sukkot, will have already voted – without ever reading a word of the Conservative platform. Is this how Stephen Harper holds himself accountable?"

Incredibly à propos and not without irony, gmail's quote of the day is from Bono: "The less you know, the more you believe."
