The Galloping Beaver: Fisking the Tory talking points
I was quite interested to see the Tory talking points that were mailed
out to their loyal supporters in order to have them not only phone up
talk radio, but also use identical arguments. I'm very grateful to the
Montréal Gazette [http://tinyurl.com/5qcgby] for getting a copy of this
document and running it for the rest of Canadians who don't happen to
be members of Steven Harper's Foot Soldiers TM.
Unfortunately,
Harper doesn't do his foot soldiers and any favors when it comes to
making them look smart. The "arguments" that he furnishes them with
are, by and large, either pointless, pure propaganda or dependent on a
logical fallacy. Let's have a look.
