So, the Gouvernement du Canda and M. Etienne Harper (pronounced "arp-AIR") have launched an ad campaign in Washington to convince us they're our bestest buddies. They've posted the following all over our public transit: I thought it was a pretty good effort, especially how they...

Of course it's not. On AGW, most folk made an emotional decision, and now they're scrambling to find "evidence" to support it, and ignoring evidence that points the other way. It ain't science, it's politics.

Wally, are you one of those people who believes that cold days are proof there's no global warming, but hot days have no meaning? Thanks for the reddie. Guess you can't answer the question. Not surprised.

Of course. Most basic Western values are practiced only when they benefit the proponents. Which, by the way, makes them no worse than most basic non-Western values. Just no better either.

Here's my ideology: private companies may set the terms of their products and services as they choose. The market will then reward or punish those choices. It's funny how many self-proclaimed conservatives tout this as a basic Western value, then get all pissy when a private company makes a...
