I'm just pointing out the duplicity in your arguments. You certainly did not differentiate the individual from the party in your thread title or opening comments, but you are very much trying to do so between the leader and the party.
Personally, I find this entire controversy hilarious, and just another sign of how big a threat the WRA are becoming in Alberta politics. It's not at all surprising that the Tories immediately tried to twist the comments into something far worse than they were - they are running scared right now.
As far as Carter's idiocy goes, it will be interesting to see if the party makes any kind of public example of him. As innocent as his comments may have been intended to be, attacking the person is never a good strategy, and showed a distinct lack of foresight. He should keep his commentary focused on the government's actions.
