My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we'll change the world. Jack Layton

Maybe If They Had Called It A Prayer Meeting...
Instead of a reception for Canada's Nobel Prize winning scientists, the PM and his merry band of fundamentalists would have shown up. I can understand it in one sense. This government sees science as a rival to its faith-based ideology and we all know how the prime minister deals with rivals. But, as Don Martin points out, the political optics of this petty attitude toward science, just reinforces the idea that the government is just completely out of touch. Now, I believe and have believed this for a long time. It is nice to see members of the MSM pointing out the obvious. We are being led by a group of pre-enlightenment thugs.
