POSTED RESPONSE TO A COLUMN IN TORONTO'S GLOBE AND MAIL
Red, white, and blue?
Of course.
Harper is, and always has been, an American wannabe.
In almost every policy and utterance, he takes his lead from
right-wing Americans.
In everything from secret slush funds and dishonest campaign
techniques to his insanely unbalanced statements about the Middle East, Harper
is the American Establishment's man north of the border.
So, it's only fitting that he use red, white, and blue -
even if the blue a tad different to that of America's red, white, and blue.
The new paint does perhaps have the advantage of offering
some protection on trips abroad, protection against being instantly shot down
by trigger-happy American thugs at the controls of drones and fighters and
missile batteries.
