It Wasn't Me!

On the heals of my commentary yesterday: The Star declares "AIDS Sculpture Defaced."

I thought this was funny given I read earlier this week that the artists of the piece believe writing on it is part of the art. In fact, they were upset when the sculpture was cleaned after it's first exhibition.

In any event, I did not write "Stephen Harper you shame us!!" on the sculpture.

If it was you, Thanks.

Also of note, the AIDS funding announcement that was promised this week has been postponed. According to Harper, the issue has become too "politicized" to make any announcement this week. In other words, he knows he's pissed us off enough for now, and wants to stop reminding us that he's in Whitehorse. And not in front of the World.

It always makes sense to defer an AIDS funding announcement until after an AIDS Conference - especially when it is being hosted in the country you are the Prime Minister of. Yes, don't show up, and don't donate.

It reminds me of the kid who can't take the heat, and takes his bat and ball and runs home...Or to Whitehorse.

Fortunately, the media didn't call him on his trip from Paris to help rescue Canadians escaping from Lebanon. If that were the case, he may not have announced the $25 million in funding.
