HARPER ON A ROLL...


...Of course, he does it from the safety of Rutherturd's radio booth, sounding like Lt. Cmdr. Phillip Queeg of the Caine Mutiny.
Next he'll ask to check Ignatieff and the opposition troika for the strawberries.
So, has Harper lost it? Sending ministers to stand before the international press and say if Canada doesn't get that UN seat it's Ignatieff's fault? Wow, who knew one man could be so powerful, but considering how Harper is a real one-man-band type, no wonder he is sweating over what his main rival is doing.
Just keep in mind that, while sounding psychotic and paranoid may not be a great campaign strategy, Harper is really playing checkers to our chess. While the media is giving air time to his illogical rants, it is taking real journalists away from the Parliament building reno scandal, the entitlements of righthand toddler Pierre, and the stubborn whacking of the census.

Why do you have a pic of Humphrey Bogart on this post? Just curious.

A: Because he played the character of the paranoiac Lt. Cmdr. Phillip Queeg of the Caine Mutiny, which that photo's a still from.

It was a tour de force performance by Bogart, as the Cmdr who slowly lost his marbles while fussing over who stole the strawberries. I'm thinking Harper has a possible second career once politics is (mercifully) over -- hurry! That community theatre in okotoks dearly needs someone to do 3rd rate duke manatee and queegs...
