Welcome to the Last Refuge of a Scoundrel

After the Harper government's near-death experience of the past six weeks, the Ignatieff ascendancy among the Liberals and the steadfast refusal of the NDP and the Bloc to back down, Conservative supporters have been badly burnt by Harper's Pyrrhic victory. The cannibal economists of the Fraser Institute, their fifth columnists at Canwest Global and Bell GlobeMedia, the hate mongering anti-gay, anti-abortion, anti-women evangelicals, Alberta's toxic petrofascists and the 'Support our Troops' (or else?) bully boys need a cause to rally around, and rally around quickly.

This page believes that this will do nicely for them, which is probably why it's caught the attention of the Conservative Bullsh*t Cabal (CBC - home of 'Heartland, 'Wild Roses', Andrew Coyne and a bunch of other stuff Ralph Klein probably masturbates to). Scream away, all you SUV-driving, Legion-hopping, Don Cherry-cheerleading donut monkeys, scream away. It's too bad none of you can remember that your parents and grandparents spent a lot of time in Europe back in the 40's to put down a bunch of murderous thugs who were just as big on forced patriotic exercises and mob rule as you seem to be. It's also too bad that you don't understand how parliamentary democracy works, or that your boy Harper only rules by the grace of Rideau Hall and a Liberal Party restocking its war chest.

This page can't wait for the next federal election when my riding of Vancouver East is marked with the Palinesque brand of being 'Anti-Canada'. Hopefully all the Tory true believers can forget that when they're watching the Figure Skating and Short Track Speed Skating competitions live from the Pacific Coliseum, which, for those of you scoring at home, is surrounded by all those Anti-Canadian brown people, yellow people, gay people, and poor people who somehow learned the words to 'O Canada' on our own.
