Stephen Harper!....What a guy!!!.....LOL! |
|
He sings!....He plays the piano!....He's writing a book on hockey!....He's a thespian! (he plays a cop who grouses about Ottawa “infighting” in an upcoming episode of Murdoch Mysteries.) Despite all his desperate attempts to showcase himself, he still comes across as a cold, self-centered control freak! Keep polishing your act Stevie, it ain't working yet!!!! Hahaha!

3. So far the Cons seem to be weathering all these scandals. I don't get it. Their poll numbers keep |

going up. I can't believe Canadians would reward their arrogant and secretive behaviour.

here are the reasons I've heard and (yes, I know most are BS, these are in their words):
1. The economy didn't tank as bad as the rest of the world. Harper knows economics. Somehow those 2 are related.
2. Ignatieff is weird. And isn't he part American?
3. Liberals will raise taxes. Harper lowered the GST.
4. Jack Layton's a goof. What's with the 'stache?
Yep, deep thinkers. Also, I've noticed little fanfare about the Con's upcoming scandals on CTV or CBC. They seem, um, scared?
And, Canadians are not hurting, comparatively, therefore aren't ready to vote to change anything - the devil you know, and all that.

5. I agree with you about the media's reluctance to highlight the scandals. |

I think maybe if these dictatorial actions of Harper were driven home to the public, it would be a different story. Also, the Liberals don't make use of the amunition they have against him.
