No Need to Worry Part 2

First, I would like to correct one individuals' posting. This islamist was not "re-elected" by any means, he was elected for his first time. Moreover, he is now an average backbench member of parliament with absolutely no power due to the conservative party's win and the balance of power does not rest solely with the liberal party. As for the alleged comments, there are varying reports as to what happened but it is generally understood that it was one of his supporters, not him, that made the frightening comments. If the liberals come back to power any time soon, this man will likely be isolated in the caucus and won't have any influence in the governments' affairs.
