Can't really find records of when attack ads originally aired but I remember Harper being targetted after becoming leader.
You may feel that people who are religious deserve to be ridiculed but we do have freedom of religion in this country. I'm personally not religious at all but if you're going to slam one then you should call the Buddists and Muslims morons too.

I will say that I'm completely against any religious bashing, and it should have no part in politics. If there were attack ads put forth about Stockwell Day and his beliefs then I have no problem in calling them deplorable. I'm just not convinced they ever existed though.
What I do find striking is that with some recent events, Harper and the PCs have rightly come out against bullying. A week later they put out this attack ad, which has nothing to do with any issues and is virtually the same thing. I mainly laugh at attack ads honestly; I don't find them offensive in the least and I don't care which party they're for/against. I just wish that politicians and parties would grow-up in general though.
