It isn't easy being a green Tory

One of the difficulties of reversing one's traditional ideological views is that there is large blogosphere out there that is likely to undermine you. So following this week's report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change comes an attack from the (you guessed it) ever reliable Fraser Institute. So what do we find on the Blogging Tories site? None other than this urgent appeal to other like-minded Tory bloggers from Canadian Blue Lemons that "The Fraser Report Must Be Read and Widely Distributed".

John Baird and Stephen Harper want us to believe they care about climate change. Apparently their followers remain to be convinced.
