Today I’m going to post on a topic that is within the scope of Reeferlogic’s mandate but doesn’t get as much of my time. It’s the portion of our agenda related to hating neo-cons.

I have a large amount of hate directed towards the following Conservatives: Stephen Harper, Tony Clement, John Baird, Jim Flaherty, Lisa Raitt, Rona Ambrose, Rob Nicholson, Chuck Strahl, Stockwell Day, Vic Toews, Diane Finlay, Peter MacKay, Bev Oda, Jim Prentice, Josee Verner, Peter Van Loan, Gerry Ritz, Jason Kenney, Jim Moore, Leona Aglukkaq, Gary Lunn and Diane Ablonczy. I know there are more I hate but these ones pop to mind immediately.

It’s these supposed “leaders” that I eye with 100% disgust. They are waving their proverbial penis’s in the face of their constituents while not saying a damn thing about Stephen Harper’s prorogation of parliament. This action of Harper’s put a 2 month stop to Canadian democracy and canceled every bill and committee that was underway. A HUGE WASTE OF MONEY AND MISSED OPPORTUNITIES. And these Conservative political leaders think it’s ok and we won’t care.

Now don’t get me wrong, most of that legislation was Conservative bullshit I never wanted to see written into law anyway, but it’s the flippant nature by which Harper threw all of that tax money away for his own self interest that drives me insane! How much did we pay all of those people to just have their work thrown in the trash? Probably enough to house a lot of homeless Canadians or give retraining to hundreds of out of work manufacturers. Instead Harper wasted it all, millions of dollars for sure.

Apparently Harper say’s he needed the time off to figure out the next steps in our economic action plan. BULLSHIT! Come on Steve, can’t you walk and chew gum at the same time? Canadian’s expect their Government to be able to multitask and not need to shut down parliamentary democracy to get work done. Parliamentary democracy aside, I don’t see Obama telling the US voters he’s going to pause their democracy so he can figure out what comes next with his economic plan. Do you know why Steve? Because that would be political suicide. And guess what Steve, you’ve just done that yourself. You will not recover from this miscalculation. You will be defeated in the next election. We are all tired of your bullshit and game playing with our democracy. This is the last straw. You have shown you can’t lead, in fact you have just shown us you don’t want to lead and you need to be replaced.

We didn’t get upset when it was revealed the Conservative party produced a guide for its members on how to slow down and delay the work of parliamentary committees. We should have been furious but we weren’t. I suppose that made you think we wouldn’t care if you pulled this move. You were wrong. We didn’t cause a big stir when you prorogued parliament not even a year ago to avoid being ousted by the opposition parties. That was different though Steve, we didn’t like the idea of a coalition government so we didn’t rock the boat. It wasn’t because we were ok with you weaseling out on your responsibilities to the people and not facing the music in the House of Commons. We simply didn’t want a coalition - so you got lucky. But now Steve, now you’ve gone too far.

And to show you how mad we are Steve, yesterday was a day of rallies across Canada in 60 cities as well as in London, England and a handful of US cities. The message we got out, and will continue to get out, is that we will not tolerate this behaviour from our Government. We expect more from our Government than cowardly avoidance tactics.

The time to replace Stephen Harper is upon us.

Thanks Stephen, your help in this matter is greatly appreciated, you douche.
