The Three Stooges Meet Dumb & Dumber

In a recent edition, Maclean's paraded what it chose to call "The Resistance" on its front cover.  Very quickly, some wag changed the image to something else.

Personally, I like a different version that appeared shortly after.  Let's call spades, spades, after all.  

This is the bunch, at least here in Canada, that is spearheading the fight against dealing with climate change.  Taking the Federal Government to court to challenge the imposed carbon tax.  Let's face it.  These boys aren't "The Resistance", they're The Obstructionists.

There are so many reports coming out, so much research that's been done over the past couple of decades, it's just astonishing that anyone, especially anyone who aspires to political leadership, could take such positions in this day and age.

What we've been learning recently is that forecasts about the future effects of climate change have been, if anything, far too conservative, if I can use that word.  

Of course, the cynics/realists among us will know that these boys aren't taking their positions because of any great principles, but rather because they believe they can profit from political opportunism.  It's all about gaining power.

Face it, boys.  That's not leadership.
