Sure there are some who hate based on race, but most don't like Obama for his policies and his party. I guess all blacks who didn't vote for Bush must be racist as well.

andy made a stupid comment, and the only point he made was to show his ignorance.

Maybe you perceived it that way but he didn't. He never said you had to like the guy because he was black, only that some people don't like him because he is. Now... it you believe that there is absolutely no racism white on black in the USA, we may have a problem.

Excellent response from JT:

I'm still not sold on him yet (have to wait and see what his platform looks like), but I definitely like that he took the high road on this.

Meh, I'd call it more of the mediocre road. All he did was mouth the same old tired platitudes we hear during pretty much every election run, but never actually see after the elections.

JT took his shirt off in mock burlesque for charity and you turn on the partisan puritan missives and lay it on thick how people ought to act.

Cause it's cheesy and unprofessional and not fitting for a MOP.

If you find that acceptable from your Members of Parliament, by all means...but I don't.

Clearly you don't unless of course you're a mayor of TO then all if the unprofessional conduct gets a by.

Or is it simply a difference in professions?

What were you hoping to see two years ahead of an election and just days after taking over the party?

Perhaps had I said that unprofessional actions get a pass, that would make sense, but it doesn't.

Just because you like some the work a politician has done doesn't mean you accept and agree with all the mistakes they've made.

Well it does means you'll through up a partisan Defence to the bitter end though:)

The Canadian Liver Foundation is bush-league?

Gun, I appreciate your need to take swipes at people but take a little time, spell them correctly and ensure they make sense.

You're just swinging for the fences looking to get a rise out of people lately and you keep coming up empty. Sad.

Is it more or less cheesy and unprofessional than singing beatles tunes?

Not even in the same league. Playing an instrument and singing at a charity event isn't bad at all....when Clinton did it or even Jack Layton...far more class than taking one's clothes off for a bush-league event.

A bush-league event? It was a charity fundraiser just like Harper and Clinton performed at. The obvious difference being when you're a nation's leader or ex-leader, you get invited to more high-profile events.
Besides that, JT had less clothing on when he "fought" Brazeau so I'm not sure what's so unsavoury about undressing down to one's undershirt while performing a mock strip-tease at a charity fundraiser. I mean c'mon, it's not like he got naked and did the "Propeller".

I'm sure the charity is a noble organization, I think this particular event is bush.

Would we be singing the praises of the event if it was Peter McKay or Rona Ambrose? I think the sentiment would be quite different.
