Stephen Harper. Socially Inept And Arrogant. Who Knew?

What an interesting man our current Prime Minister is turning out to be.

Everyone knew that Mr Harper had his God's private cell phone number, e-mail address and they were closerthanthis in Harper's rabidly religious little mind, but St. Stephen seems to feel he's in line to take over from St. Peter as God's right hand man. He's already proving that he's a decisive resolution maker. No more flying the flag at half staff when members of Canada's military are killed in action in some part of the world that resents our presence and will fight to the death to get our sadly under-funded, under-equipped and under-staffed troops back on Canadian soil, alive or dead. You tell 'em Mr. Harper, that's the way to lead a divided country.

Lester B. Pearson must be weeping in whatever plane he inhabits.

Harper hates the press, does not believe in free speech, has a short fuse, a shorter memory, and is distainful of anyone who isn't, well, him. Or George W. Bush, who is the only other mortal that Harper seems to believe is worthy of his time and energy. Like Dubya, Harper is a marginally intelligent, socially clumsy, egomaniacal and power hungry politician. The difference between Bush and Harper is that Dubya stole the presidency fair and square, and unless the U.N. gets smart and charges him with crimes against humanity, he'll go down in America's dubious history as a legitimate two-termer. Harper is the basically by-default leader of a minority government in a country that can be fickle. There are not enough dyed-in-the-wool far (far) right conservatives in Canada to save him and his little band of throwbacks should he piss off enough people.....and he will. The fifth estate is a powerful force in a large, far flung country. When the press finally decides that this obnoxious, narcissistic, Dubya-wannabe has to go, they will ensure that even the most die-hard Bible-thumping, freedom-hating, fire-and-brimstone Albertans sees Harper for what he is. A bogus, shallow man who got lucky for a while, and was allowed to perform the role of Prime Minister of Canada.

He is a disgrace to Canada, and I am very saddened that Canadians have chosen to give him a second term.

I'm worried about the future of Canada right now, and the fact that he seems indifferent towards the nation's sovereignty, narrow in his focus, and uncompromising.
