What is the colour of stupid? Green

Green isn't the colour of envy, its the colour of stupidity, well, maybe envy too. Green Party of Canada Leader, Elizabeth May is so far out there she is building a base on the moon.

May said Friday the downturn in Canada's economy could be smoothed out by putting a moratorium on an expansion of the tar sands.

The stupidity of this statement is beyond my comprehension. Is she really advocating an assault on the engine of the Canadian economy?

The tar sands, that place out west that is creating thousands of good jobs? This would greatly affect the West's economy. They are an oil based economy right now, and to be perfectly frank, it is the best performing aspect of the Canadian economy right now.

She is advocating attacking the west's economy to drive the price of oil down? This makes no sense, she is literally going to hurt the western provinces to drive down the dollar to help manufacturing in central Canada.

"That would help bring our dollar back to more of its historic relationship with the U.S. dollar and that would help our manufacturing sector," May said in an interview with CTV's Canada AM.

Of course, most of our raise against the American dollar is due to the American dollar's decline against world currencies.

Unbelievable.

It's like NEP II, Green styles.

We're better off with Harper.

I wonder if Ellie May knows here history in that the First Nations Canadians were the first to find the "tar sands" - those being the banks of the Athabasca River oozing black tarry like substances way back when.

I wonder if she knows that the "tar sands" would still be oozing today if "big oil" was there or not.

I was most struck by the comment about the Canadian dollar. Having the dollar tank back to 70 cents US does not seem like a healthy way to build an economy. It's a way of using your currency as a crutch for an unhealthy economy.

Lizzy is soooo gonna crash at the debates. Environutjobs can't help themselves, they explode when challenged. They are righteous and you are stupid!

Question:
Ms. May, you fought for democracy, for the Green Party to have a podium in these debates.
Canadians came out swinging in defence of you and the GPC.
So here you are, democracy at work, the people have spoken.

Now you are telling those same Canadians who wanted the Green Party to have a voice, to not vote for the Green Party nor it's platform.
You are telling Canadians to not vote for any party based their platform nor the candidate that would best represent them (democracy).
Have you not effectively disbanded the GPC?
Why now, should any Canadian vote for the Green Party?

She also doesn't want any nuclear plant in the oil sands area (or anywhere else, for that matter) which are in the middle of nowhere. Nuclear power would be a much more efficient way of heating water needed in the refinement process, instead of using costly natural gas.
