My God, he sounds like Martin...

Gee, isn't Jack Layton sounding like Martin and the Liberals?

NDP Leader Jack Layton, attempting to protect his budget deal, said Conservative Leader Stephen Harper will be "getting into bed" with the separatists if he forces an election.

Talking to reporters in Halifax, Layton said voting against the budget would put at risk Atlantic offshore revenue deals for Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador, worth billions.

"The Atlantic Accord could be at risk if Mr. Harper calls an election because Mr. Harper will be getting into bed with the separatists who didn't support the Atlantic accord after any election happens," Layton said.

Gee, last week Layton didn't like the budget and was prepared to vote against it. Now, after getting $4.6 billion of goodies, if you don't vote for it, you're supporting the separatists. Does this man have any principles?
