The Day Stephen Harper Stared Down the Russians

It had to be one of the scariest confrontations in the Baltic Sea since the darkest days of the Cold War.

Or one of the most ridiculous.

For there was Stephen Harper, on day five of his mega tour of Europe, in feverish pursuit of the ethnic vote...



You know, the mega photo-op that's costing us MILLIONS.

When old Queeg, the self-styled Scourge of Putin, peered through his binoculars and saw the Russians were coming !!!! 

Two Russian frigates were spotted from a Canadian warship carrying Prime Minister Stephen Harper during NATO military exercises on the Baltic Sea on Tuesday.

And since Jason Kenney, Queeg's faithful Smee, was also onboard...



"These two Russian frigates were tracking the bulk of the NATO vessels about 15 nautical miles northwest of here,” Kenney told reporters. “But a few hours ago they changed their direction and started coming west towards the HMCS Fredericton.”

Panic ensued.

And you can probably imagine what happened next...



Until Kenney realized the Russians were NOT coming, and Stephen Harper realized that with a little editing, this episode of his propaganda extravaganza could be turned into The Day I Stopped the Russians. 

Harper used the opportunity to once again denounce Russia’s leader, and possibly win votes. “Mr. Putin’s recklessness threatens global stability, regional stability and has spread fear among our eastern allies,” he said.

And promptly declared VICTORY...



In his never-ending attempt to fight the Battle of the Bulge and seize the ethnic vote.

Pollster Nik Nanos said the comments are aimed at Canada million-strong eastern European community. “There are a series of ridings in Western Canada that are in play, that have significant Ukrainian- populations, and this is an issue that’s important to them,” he said.

Even though, and you won't see this in any Canadian report, his grotesque photo-op blew the Fredericton right out of that NATO exercise. 

The Fredericton is the lone Canadian ship taking part in NATO exercises in the Baltic, which started last year in response to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

Harper’s presence meant the Fredericton did not participate in any “direct” way in NATO exercises on this outing, the captain said.

So the Canadian navy, like the Harper Police, is now Harper's Navy. 

And Operation BALLS had to renamed Operation MINNOW...



And even though the Con's shameless pandering to the ethnic vote, and Stephen Harper's big mouth cannon, or big ass cannon, is only making the dangerous crisis in Ukraine even more dangerous.

And could help trigger the Third World War...



And kill us ALL.

But of course, even that can't stop the Cons, because they really are desperate.

So today they're in Rome to pander to the Italian-Canadian vote. Before heading to the Vatican to see the Pope, to try to win the Catholic vote.

And the good news?

The Pope might turn out to be even more of a menace than the satanic Putin himself. 

Prime Minister Stephen Harper could get an earful on climate change when he meets with Pope Francis at the Vatican Thursday.

The pontiff is set to release one of his occasional "encyclicals" – a letter to one billion Catholics worldwide – with a focus on stewardship of the planet's environment.

And wouldn't that be a slap in the face?



Or poetic justice.

But yes, Great Monkey Leader is crazy desperate and out of control.

He's now threatening our very survival.

And in the name of humanity we can't cage him soon enough...
