I'm just not sure tossing them in jail is the way to go. Maybe a comprehensive early childhood education would help? Maybe expanding our social programs that seek to help at risk youth, and giving them more resources? An ounce of prevention, as they say. <BR/><BR/>3) Chretien should have gone too. I've said that in the past. I'm glad you're admitting that's where the Conservatives are setting the bar though, since I know how highly Conservative think of Jean. And, since you ask, I'd like to see Steve and the government get serious about cancer and heart disease too. Treating all three is a huge cost to our health care system,.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14971310821484459106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-1155763606641513092006-08-16T17:26:00.000-04:002006-08-16T17:26:00.000-04:00Wow the homophobes are out today!Doesn't it say so...Wow the homophobes are out today!<BR/><BR/>Doesn't it say something in the bible about not having sex with your cousin or you'll wind up with sloped forehead children who leave lame-assed conservative comments on blogs?

If you really want ...1) You're welcome to Orchard. If you really want to be pragmatic, you might want to think about the price of Orchard's support.<BR/><BR/>2) Kiddie jail? How about a reasonable extension of the law to allow children who are not being helped by social services (or whose families are not supportive of that help)to come under a system where help can be compelled? But kiddie jail sounds better. I bet it will play as well as "scary" Harper did.<BR/><BR/>3) Why don't we just let K.D. Lang set the PM's schedule. Forget the war in Lebanon, there's an Out Games to attend (as opposed to the Gay Games, or the Pride Parade in Toronto, or the Pride Parade in Vancouver, all of which demand politicians attend). And sure the last time the AIDS conference was held in Canada the PM didn't attend (Hmm, wasn't he a Liberal, then?). But this time the PM must because, well, ummmm, . . . Hold on, why exactly must he attend again? If it isn't political, why should he attend this conference and not the one for heart disease (which kills more Canadians than AIDS) or the one for cancer (that kills more Canadians than AIDS). That's right, it is political. And like Chretien, I'm sure he has better things to do than attend a conference where organizers would prefer to embarrass the PM than achieve anything useful.The Rathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00762317244980526077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-1155751768075552312006-08-16T14:09:00.000-04:002006-08-16T14:09:00.000-04:00"Every baby who got AIDS from its mother, every pe..."Every baby who got AIDS from its mother, every person who received infected blood in a transfusion, all of them can trace the origin of their infections back to a very human choice to engage in conduct judged for thousands of years to be harmful to the human race."<BR/><BR/><BR/>Really, its says in the Bible you aren't allowed to eat the meat and brains of monkeys?
