Conservative Peter Kent quoting Chayefsky's Howard Beale?! That's so wrong
Canadian former newscaster throws his hat into the ring as a Conservative candidate, bastardising Beale's "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore!".

Does anyone in the right of the house not find this ironic? Taking the antiestablishment writing of Paddy Chayefsky and subverting it to advance conservative/corporate politics.

That does it. Somehow.
