Canadians Really Need To Lighten Up!

Alberta Premier Ralph Klein told a VERY funny joke Tuesday night:

Klein was reminiscing about how Stronach, the Conservative turned Liberal who dumped boyfriend Peter MacKay as she crossed the floor in the Commons, once roasted him.

"I wasn’t surprised she crossed over — I don’t think she ever did have a Conservative bone in her body,” said Klein. “Well, except for one."

You can read the full account here. As famous American comedian "Larry The Cable Guy" would say: "I don't care who you. That's just dog gone funny!" And it is!

But sure enough, the usual suspects took something funny and stepped all over it:

• The Media
• Klein's in hotwater
• Klein has sparked controversy
• Klein's comments touched off a storm on Parliament Hill
• Stronach quip dogs Klein
  
• Politicians
• NDP MP Dawn Black said Klein's comments were "totally unacceptable" and prove that sexism thrives in politics.
• Liberal MP Ruby Dhalla called Klein's remarks ignorant and insensitive. "I think it's reflective of the Conservative attitude toward women," Dhalla said last night.
• Assorted Women
• It's offensive
• He needs to apologize
• It's an insult to all women
• He essentially called Stronach a whore

These people truly need to bend over and remove the large crowbar that so surely must be shoved up their you-know-what. And then they should get a large brush so as to sweep the chips off of their shoulders. We Canadians collectively do need to grow up!!
