Uncorrected Proofs points out one utterly bizarre priority on the Young Liberals' "Take Back Canada" website. But something else about their choice of phrasing jumps out at me even more.
The main theme of the site is "Give Harper the Boot". Which would be well and good on its own - but does nobody in the Young Libs remember that the "give...the boot" phrase was at the centre of an effective ad campaign against their own party in the last federal election?
I suppose this could be an effort to get today's Young Libs into the party's longtime habit of poaching ideas from the NDP...or perhaps the 2006 election experience has led somebody to conclude that it's simply an effective phrase. But I'd still think that the Libs would be bright enough not to remind Canadians of the election where voters decided to remove their party from power.
