#1 Prime Minister Stephen Harper once called the Kyoto accord a "socialist scheme" designed to suck money out of rich countries, according to a letter leaked Tuesday by the Liberals

Harper is very perceptive. I s'pose the LP put it on their website for the same reason Harper sent it in the first place: fundraising from the base.

Can posting a mass-mailing really be called a 'leak'?

#2 Harper is right. Here's a story that was in my local newspaper today about what the donks believe about "global warming". Instapundit had an artice yesterday about two books from the scientific community that expounded that ALL climate change could be accounted for by solar variables and solar cycles, and that the findings could be verified by climate models. The entire "global warming" meme is an attempt to grab more control of commerce, and has nothing to do with a "weather emergency".

#3 I urge all Canadians who believe in global warming to immediately shut off their heaters and send the unused oil south.

#5 "a letter leaked Tuesday by the Liberals"

Because they thought it was going to hurt Harper (with normal people, that is)?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
