Globe & Mail reports: "Harper’s top aide being linked to in-and-out scandal"

Read and wonder... is this the kind of accountability he promised us?

Anyone remember February 2006? "Canada's next prime minister said his first act in Parliament will be to propose a federal accountability act." HA! What a joke that turned out to be.

Five years on, and too many scandals to mention, it is clear to all rational Canadians with ears and/or eyes that Harpo's words and actions are as cheap, tawdry, and empty as a whore's promise of love when the money (i.e. the vote) is the issue. His faux commitment to transparency is, like everything else about the man, notable only for its absence. With no heart and no shame ... all that he covets is political gain. Fuck him, let's tell him his run is done!

Shuffling a Bad Deck - Harpo promotes two Elderly Parrots

Say what you will about Primo Harpo and his new cabinet shuffle - one thing's for sure - you can't accuse the man of either ageism or anti-birdism!

At 67 and 68 respectively, Peter Kent and Julia Fantino are just what the PC doctor ordered: Parrots-par-excellence from the right area code who appeal to an older, crochety, malleable demographic that is essential to Harpo & Co.'s fortunes if they hope to secure a majority.

Between them, these two Yes-Men have probably had so many prostate exams that they will hardly notice when the dark hand of the PMO inserts itself into the appropriate orifice and makes them speak bullshit to the populous.

If a deck of cards is rotten, fixed, and skewed from the beginning no amount of shuffling will ever change it's marked colours. Nice try Harpo - "onward and downward" as usual.


[n.b. Clarification - I have nothing against the beautiful birds pictured above. But I do hold against aper's, mimic's, Yes-Men, and parroting arseholes!]
