Wow!  The twists and turns of the socialists in their mental gymnastics to convince themselves that the issue was something more than banal is astounding.  

We are to believe that the incident was banal, but commencing an engagement with the premier with the words, "I would never vote for you . . ." is something less than partisan?  The premier was right to end the engagement in a friendly and prompt manner.  Anything negative that has occurred since is the product of the NDP social media team attempting to build faux outrage amongst the slacktivist Twitter and social media set.
