Less is more.
While looking into the mindset that came up with the poster that the Liberal Party of Canada’s Quebec youth wing put out today amid a little controversy in the media today, I came across almost everything I expected.
The Young Liberals of Canada web site opens with a big banner promoting gay marriage and includes this picture of lesbians kissing:
Then it switches to a picture of a marijuana joint, in which they indicate their desire to legalize pot-smoking.
They don’t have a picture of young teenage hookers walking the street to help promote their pro-prostitution legalization stand, for some reason, no. So those are the only two issues they seem to think is most important for Canada, or at least the two they think will attract their kind of new members, to help build their kind of Canada.
Anyway here’s the stupid poster in question which is on the Young Liberals of Canada‘s Quebec site, which ironically given that it’s the Liberal Party of Canada’s site, includes this caveat at the top of the English language version of the site:
PLEASE NOTE that the English version of the YLCQ web site is a work in progress. Some parts are not available in English yet. In addition, some sections, such as this home page, will remain bilingual.
After I saw it left me wondering if it wasn’t a Fruit of the Loom underwear ad or one of those Calvin Klein ads in which they portray young kids barely dressed to sell I’m not sure what but clothes seem to be beside the point. I am simply unclear on what it is they’re promoting judging by this poster. I think it’s promoting walking around in your gonchawears while also using a crosswalk to safely cross the street. Or the Libs have a new line of underwear. I’m frankly surprised it’s not G-string underwear—or that they’re not promoting going “commando” (probably didn’t take to the military reference!)
I duly note how the Liberals chose a very multicultural bunch and fulfilled many Liberal requirements.
Ethnic groups: Check!
Men and Women: Check!
Skinny folks and fat: Check!
Sleaze and sex factor: Check!
Good for you, Liberals! You did however forget to throw in a prostitute, a cross-dresser, and a pot-smoking idiot. That’s half your vote!
In the meantime, I received my Claire Booth Luce Calendar of Great American Conservative Women today (click link to read about it and order!) and it’s already hanging on my wall even though it’s for 2006. That’s MY kind of “progressive”! It’s chock full of fantastic conservatives from down south.
I’ve noticed that they chose only to portray women, thankfully, though I doubt they even gave much thought to inventing a picture of “diversity” just to appear as though they’re politically-correct and to appease the politically-correct among us—again thankfully.
Here’s The American Conservative Woman for December 2006, our Ann Coulter:
And that really says it all.
