Thanks to an email tip from fellow blogger Tony Guitar, I bring you this very partisan letter from the Liberal Party of Canada soliciting donations by attacking the Conservative government:

From the Desk of the National Director
Dear Liberal Friend,
Please take a moment to read below, and consider what you are willing to do for Canadian democracy.
In the last 100 days, The Stephen Harper Government has put forward a series of policies that are seriously impeding Canada’s ability to be a sovereign nation. Under the smoke and mirrors of tax cuts and half-hearted subsidies, Mr. Harper is aligning Canadian policy with that of George Bush’s United States.
Which of these Harper policies do you think most aligns Canada with George Bush’s United States?
Cancelling Canada’s commitment to the Kyoto Accord
Assigning Fixed Election Dates
Catering to the NRA-style gun lobby
Destroying the Kelowna Accord
Tax increases for the poor, and tax cuts for the rich
Arming Canada’s Borders
Bowing to US Softwood Lumber Demands
Seven policies: Seven steps towards a Republican Canada.
It’s time to shine a spotlight on Stephen Harper’s real agenda. More than ever, the Liberal Party of Canada needs your help to defeat this emerging threat.
Here are some ways you can make a difference right now:
1) MAKE A DONATION TODAY to the Liberal Party of Canada
The Liberal Party of Canada needs your immediate support. Your tax-deductible donation will help communicate our strong opposition to Stephen Harper’s pillaging of Canada’s values. Your donation will also support important initiatives, like:

2) Contact your Member of Parliament
To make democracy work in Canada’s 21st century, more Canadians must engage politicians. Elected representatives need to hear from the people of this great Country. It’s essential that Canadians let their politicians know what is important before it’s too late. Without your voice, Stephen Harper’s approach to governing will remain in the hands of big business, special-interest groups, and foreign nations.

Sincerely,

Judge for yourself. They dogmatically assume that we oppose Conservative government policy, despite much polling indicating that Canadians generally support the direction in which the Harper Conservatives are taking the country.
The Liberals are so desperate they don't know what to do, so they try to spin good things as bad things, stemming from their imaginary fears. Probably something to do with the tinfoil hats they like to wear.
...and the Liberals like to accuse me of imagining things when I do posts warning of the emerging threat from the growing, increasing in its destructive force, Axis Power Group, which includes Iran, North Korea and China, amongst others. What unmitigated gall!
