Can we stop now?

So now it is hair. Is this political discourse in this country? And now it is sexist to say that Minister Ambrose has good hair? Pu-leeze. She does have nice hair - and she is an attractive woman. I am now sexist for saying that? Would I be sexist if I said Michael Ignatieff was impossibly handsome?
Can we all move on?

Instant Update: I asked my wife for her thoughts on this. She says it is not sexist to say that so and so is attractive but in the context in which the criticism was levelled it could be. Depends on whether or not a man would be criticized for spending too much time on his hair. I still think it is much to do about nothing.

I like my ahir though!

Is this political discourse in this country?

Clownservatives have been working furiously since MacKay’s dog comment to generate a similar controversy against their opponents; any of their opponents. Here’s another example of it. This isn’t surprising since it’s what clownservatives do and it’s why I call them clownservatives.

Here’s still another example of it. I think it’s a form of mass dementia that stems from reading too much opinion generated by idiots.

FIGHT MENTAL ILLNESS !! ESCHEW READING ANY WRITINGS GENERATED BY THE ABOVE-QUOTED DOLTISH IDIOT, Robert McLelland.

TangoJuliette:

As I’ve said elsewhere:

CLASSIC LIBERAL PIFFLE AND ATTEMPTS AT MIS-DIRECTION !!

You guys were in power for 13 years. Much of that time you had a majority.

      • You blew over six billion dollars on cranking up a failing Kyoto Agreement, driving it to 36% OVER your target (this shabby performance effectively gave Canada, and the world, a LIBERAL-DRIVEN ‘de facto’ gutting and reneging on the Kyoto Accord, which you now seem to regard so highly.) * * *

Your Liberalese arrogant sense of entitlement sees nothing wrong with your mismanagement templates, a la Shawinigate, HDRC, Gun Registry, Radwanski, Volpe, Fry, Iggy, etc etc, and how all that collective malfeasance might just well have been the true reason that the effective management of Government business was so sorely neglected.

No. Blame the hard-working, tax-paying pissed-off voters of Canada for YOUR horrible failures, which will soon be responsible for killing many of us.

Better yet, when all else fails, and your little poisoned brains can’t come up with anything worthwhile on an intellectual level, by all means, why not have all you “RE-progressives” and “RE-inclusionary” wazzirs launch into a sexist, mysognistic unnamed, cowardly “slink-by” smear campaign, against a duly elected Minister of the Crown, and you’ve got the tiny widdle B.B.-sized balls to do it anonymously, on an international stage, with the whole world watching.

Yep. That ought to do it.

that’ll have everyone convinced that the Liberal killing of Kyoto is REALLY Minister Ambrose’s fault.

uh-huh. uh-huh.

And… uh…attention Robert Mclelland, of the Big Tent Do Nothing but Steal Party. We’d like to come in for a fitting. Your big red nose is ready. It’ll be under the elephants butt, in a brown manilla envelope.

Well, Greg, TangoJuliette illustrated your point precisely. This IS the state of political discourse in this country.

Now excuse me while I go to a pre-kindergarten schoolyard where people are more mature…
