Lunney Goes To Ground

After speculating in the HOC on Thursday that, were Darwin alive today, he might embrace Creationism, Nanaimo-Alberni MP James Lunney has gone into hiding:

Calls to Lunney went unanswered Thursday. On Friday, staff members at his Ottawa office said he was unavailable. When asked where Lunney was, Dale Wolley, his administrative assistant, said: 'He's not available to your beck and call,' and refused to answer.

Curtis Hansen, his constituency assistant in Nanaimo said Lunney was expected in the riding Friday afternoon and would give convey the message, but Lunney did not immediately return the call.

He's also got a prominent section on his webpage for "Lunney in the News", and "Speeches and Statements", but his Thursday speech and the reaction it occasioned are nowhere to be found.

An oversight I am sure.
