Exagerations and distortions include: attacks on Harcourt with the 
implication that he is somehow responsible for events he just learned of; 
attempts to generalize the deeds of a few to anyone who ever legitimately 
dealt with NCHS or the NDP; attempts to characterize all activities of 
NCHS as illegal or immoral.  Most importantly, attempts to appear distant 
from the standards of the past because the currect participants recently 
changed their party name from one right wing shell to another.

But I know that this newsgroup is only inhabited with altruistic seekers 
of enlightenment, so why not say precisely what should be done about the 
relevations pointed to in the Parks Report.  A police investigation with 
its various possible outcomes and internal steps of reform for the NDP 
fall short of some critic's expectations.  So precisely spell out the 
expectations (why do I feel that they ultimately lead to the 
disappearance of the NDP and the unquestioned election of another right 
wing coalition?).
