Having some FUN with Shapiro's report!

I read a quote from Shapiro's report, read part of it myself, then I tried something rather FUN... I CHANGED THE NAMES to see how it would read. (I heard M.K. Braaten first posted this first quote) From the Ethic's Commissioner's "Harper/Emerson" Report:
However, what is important is the intent and the purpose associated with an offer to join Cabinet. Clearly, if the Prime Minister were to approach a member with an offer of a Cabinet position with the sole intent and specific purpose of acquiring that member’s vote directly linked to a parliamentary proceeding existing at that time, such conduct would be inappropriate and unacceptable. Conversely, if a member of the House were to approach the Prime Minister indicating that, in exchange for a Cabinet position, his or her vote could be acquired for the sole intent and specific purpose that is directly linked to a parliamentary proceeding existing at that time, that too, would be inappropriate and unacceptable.
Wow... is this the "Harper/Emerson" report, or is this the text of a yet to be released "Martin/Stronach" report?

BUT GET A LOAD OF THIS... he goes on...
Finally, all three members have referred to the Grewal-Dosanjh Report that I issued in January 2006 in support of their allegations, with particular reference to page 10, upon which the following paragraph appears:

If Mr. Grewal had sought a reward or inducement to cross the floor at this time, he would have been acting and/or attempting to act in such a way as to further his private interests. Likewise, if Mr. Dosanjh had offered a reward or inducement to Mr. Grewal to cross the floor, at this time, he would have been acting and/or attempting to act in such a way as to improperly further Mr. Grewal’s private interests.
Ohh, this could be fun... let's change the names, and then re-read it...
If Ms. Stronach had sought a reward or inducement to cross the floor at this time, she would have been acting and/or attempting to act in such a way as to further her private interests. Likewise, if Mr. Martin had offered a reward or inducement to Ms. Stronach to cross the floor, at this time, he would have been acting and/or attempting to act in such a way as to improperly further Ms. Stronach’s private interests.
OUCH!!!
