Dion 1/14th As Bad As Baird



In trying to discredit Dion, the Conservatives unwillingly give credence to an award that they themselves won 14 TIMES, during this meeting alone. Factually correct, Dion did win the award in 2005. That said, do the Conservatives really want to highlight this fact about Dion, that only focuses attention on their abysmal performance in Bali? Not to bright, if you ask me. Maybe Dion will be forced to clarify, and acknowledge that he is 1/14th as bad as Baird. Surely, that paints Dion in relatively poor light. Good work, by those strategic masters at Conservative headquarters. What next, a quote from Dion in 2005 on Income Trusts?

Five photos of Dion vs. three of Harper on the CPC's main page. It's like Stephen "Jan Brady" Harper sceaming "Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!" all the time.

...except a lot less meaningful.

That's actually the best ratio I've seen, normally it's like 5-1 Dion. When you have nothing good to say...

I feel like taking out a CPC membership and making a donation just so I can complain loudly about how its web site is an insult to the intelligence of the average Canadian.

Canada wins Gold in Bali

Thanks to our lean mean negotiatin' machine Canada's new government has triumphed in Bali. Read all about it at www.notstephenharper.com.

Steve,

You are too cynical for your own good.

The truth of the matter is that Dion is more photogenic than our PM so the CPC is just taking advantage of that.

I like the "1/14 as bad as Baird". You have a decent sense of humor, ...for one of "them".

Does anybody other than the Kyoto Klan really care about fossil awards?

Perhaps the Fossil award wouldn't be that important if the CPC goons hadn't used it so much in their partisan attacks.

They (CPC)used it, now they wear it.

Good on you, nice to know one of "them" has a sense of humor ;)

"Does anybody other than the Kyoto Klan really care about fossil awards?"

If that is true, then why would the Conservatives bother to respond on their website? Seems to me it has to mean something, given the reaction. Nice try though.

Nice try though.

well, look around your neighbourhood. Everyone knows the GST is down, but nobody but the political junkies know what a fossil award is.

They know what "embarrassment", "obstructionist", "isolated", "Bush-twin" means. Again, if it means nothing, then why respond?

Steve,

The CPC publicizing this "fossil" thing is school yard stuff.

I was hoping that the CPC thought the ENGO's running around with placards were not worth their consideration. If they start quoting them, doesn't that mean the CPC is taking these ENGO's seriously?

CPC spin pundits should leave criticism of "fossil awards" alone. It is backfiring on them.
