Stephen Harper is Delusional

[Johann]

Tory MP Michelle Rempel thinks she "dances to her own tune" while in Harper's camp. Don't stop believin', Michelle....LOL

So it's over one month since the election was called, and Stephen Harper just can't catch a break. (Do we weep for him? Hell No.)

The first month had this on offer for Steve to contend with:

- The Mike Duffy disaster trial. Nigel Wright lied on the stand in my view. He pushed "plausible" to unheard-of heights. He even quoted scripture to defend his actions. Amazing. Hey Nigel: did you ever read that part of the Bible that says "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God"?

- Statscan announced that Canada was in a recession in the first quarter of the year and we are de-facto in one now.

- Disgraced Conservative Senator Pamela Wallin had her expense claims referred to the Crown for possible criminal charges

- The Syrian refugee crisis shows how heartless Harper is, and it may be the emotional straw that breaks his re-election back. I thought it would be Duffy, but no, it's a 3-year old child face-down on a beach that forced Harper to act. His Immigration Minister did a face-plant on "Power and Politics" last week. Chris Alexander blamed the media for the situation. But Rosemary Barton exposed him for the boneheaded, callous unqualified ignoramus he is. Watch that video of Chris Alexander on Power and Politics. If that doesn't demand his resignation, then what the hell would? Harper has only agreed to accepting 10,000 refugees. NDP Leader Tom Mulcair is committed to 46,000! Over three years! Trudeau is trying to out-do him by demanding that 25,000 are accepted by Christmas- somewhat unrealistic, but at least he is agreeing to more than Harper is offering to take in. Harper has been harping about the military role only. Where is his fucking humanity? He faked crying on TV at that poor child in the surf, saying it reminded him of his son Ben. ??? Tory supporters have been ripping the opposition parties for "making political hay" out of this refugee crisis, when Harper is the Mega-poster-child for scoring cheap political points.


Nothing has gone right for Tories in this election so far. They are third in the polls, but I don't pay any attention to polls.
It's looking good for an NDP Government to show Canada what they are made of on October 19th.
If you're a Tory strategist, you must be popping the aspirins...
Because right now, The Conservative party is in flames. And those flames lick the walls of Harper's gulag about 50 feet up in the air.

Trudeau has brought out the Big Guns. Now you know the election has kicked into gear...ha ha
Former Prime Ministers' Jean Chretien and Paul Martin have backed their man, giving powerful speeches at Liberal rallies.
Chretien said that when he travels people always come up to him and ask him "What happened to Canada?"
Sadly, Stephen Harper is what happened to Canada.

Debate Number 2 is this week, a debate exclusively on the economy. Trudeau should do well, with Paul Martin coaching him.
Even though I'm firmly in the NDP camp, I have no problem with Trudeau winning. That may seem like a flip-flop as I've said previously that he wasn't ready to be Prime Minister. Maybe he isn't, but Harper was never ready. Still isn't. The most unqualified PM we've ever had. It blows my mind that people think he's the cats pajamas. It's revolting that this guy is considered a "leader".

Trudeau may be green, but he's a contender in this election, like it or not.
Mulcair is really strong right now, and the NDP orange wave shows no signs of lagging. One month to History being made.


Stephen Harper's War Room Commander Jenni Byrne has been attacked for incompetence and demanded to be fired- by Conservative party wonks!!!! What did Harper do about it? Well, we don't really know. There's a rumour she was kicked off Harper's plane and sent back to Ottawa to find some brains and willpower to do something about this refugee crisis before it buries Steve in his own cold-hearted porridge.

Face it Tories...there's no salvaging anything in your campaign. Canadians aren't dummies. They know it's time for change.

[Johann]

Harper has apparently turned to an Australian advisor who helped lame-duck British PM David Cameron win recently.
Do whatcha gotta do Steve! Your ship is a little leaky buddy...lol

Mulcair's ads where he emphatically says "I'm Ready." are brilliant. Harper is actually sending Tory supporters to Mulcair in droves, all because he destroyed Conservatism by not practising it. (Let us weep, My Brethren...lol)

Trudeau is punching above his weight, and some say that the left is split 50/50. So what? They will SHARE THE HOUSE OF COMMONS!
Sanity and BALANCE will be restored. Insane scandals will not flow like lava anymore. Tory supporters are bipping about how the sky will fall if the NDP or Liberals win. Right-O. Gotcha. That's all they can come up with when Harper's campaign has hit the skids & run off the rails? Wowza. These Tories are saying that "Harper will come on strong in the final month". Huh? Wha...?
Why hasn't he come on strong since August 2nd?
Where the fuck has his head been, on this leaden inert campaign he's lurching forward on?
The guy has got concrete shoes on, carping about how "Canadians want more of the Same".

Who can resist such Visionary goals and boring Chutzpah? LOL

[Johann]

Lockheed Martin won't help Harper this time around. The contract for the F-35 is hung, and the NDP will destroy it.
Harper had some USA help last time. This time THE PEOPLE will outweigh the corruption. Canadians have woken up.


I can't wait to get back to reviewing movies. I got some recently bought Criterion DVD's that need reviews: Eraserhead, Valerie and her Week of Wonders, Kubrick's The Killing, Sweet Movie and By Brakhage.

Harper is "excited" by his 2 billion dollar budget surplus. Right.
There is nothing to get excited about. Jim "The Fleecer" Flaherty made sure that budget surplus would be there for Harper to play as a card in the 2015 election. Yep, Flaherty planted that nugget over 2 years ago, ready-to-use in a pinch. And remember, the "surplus" is a BUDGET surplus, and it has no significnace whatsoever. Here's a blistering letter to the editor from today's Globe and Mail:


A $2-billion surplus does not matter. But what does matter is the more than $100-billion in new debt that the Conservatives have run up over the past six years. The principal alone would require 50 such surpluses to repay. And given that the Conservatives run a surplus once every seven years, it will take 350 years to recover from their fiscal mismanagement.- Thor Kuhlmann, Vancouver



So take that to the bank, Tory supporters. Harper is not "strong on the economy". He's an Oblivious Fucktard Criminal.

I listened to the economic debate last night, and it was Cracklin'.

Even tho I have an obvious anti-Harper bias, no one won that debate. If anyone did, it was Thomas Mulcair. No KO shots. But some haymakers were thrown, Boy.
Tom Mulcair unleashed the heavy early, with his withering rubuke: Mr. Harper put all of his eggs in one basket. Then he dropped the basket. Boo-Yah.
Mulcair stung Trudeau on tax havens at one point: "Why don't you tell Canadians about your shell game for your speaking fees?"
Trudeau snapped that Mulcair "always has to make everything political".
Tom also made a slogan-in-the-making with his "Mr. Harper's policies on Canada's resources is Rip-and-Ship".
He also double bitch-slapped Trudeau & Harper in one swipe: Mr. Harper wants to hit the snooze button on the economy and Mr. Trudeau wants to hit the panic button".

I guess some KO's landed, now that I think about it. (but Harper didn't get back up, a la Tubthumping) These three guys were talking over each other, and Harper sounded positively scared and confused up there. Awesome debate to listen to. I'll watch it later today to confirm my ears' impressions.

If your mind isn't made up by now on who you want, Canada, then let me decide for you: A.B.C.: Anyone But Conservatives.
