Kill Bill 208

Bill 208 is nothing more than Ted Morton appealing to the intolerant right wing of the Alberta supposedly Progressive Conservative Party for his leadership bid. It is settling to the lowest point of politics, and not trying to raise the bar of politics and democracy in this province.

It is crass.

It is small minded.

It is also something that if the Premier wants to leave a lasting positive legacy, will, can and should be killed in the caucus room.

Ted Morton would be better off to ask all of the religious leaders in the province to stop issuing marriage licenses and keep to their own religious marriage rites and ceremonies. That way they need not deal in the area's of the law they do not agree with in regards to same sex marriage.

It also makes one wonder while Ted Morton is working as an MLA, runing in the leadership race, and coming up with this sort of tripe in Kill Bill 208, if he is also still pulling in his salary from the University of Calgary.
