On glass houses

Impolitical makes a good point:

Also remarkable, Harper's taking to equating an election with political instability. And his constant repetition that "Canadians don't want an election." It's all nonsense and should be countered at every turn.

Needless to say, that entirely reasonable concern about validating Harper's false claim might be worth taking up with Michael Ignatieff - whose equal use of the rationalization doesn't seem to have gone unnoticed in the past.

(And for the record, the NDP has used similar language more than I'd like as well. But there's only one party which continues to roll over based on the excuse.)
