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.
