Two years ago I was incredibly moved by the sight of thousands of young students in Hong Kong, lighting up the sky with their cell phones.
And demanding more freedom from their stern rulers in Beijing.
In a pro-democracy movement that was known as the Umbrella Revolution.
In my last post I wrote about how Stephen Harper and his filthy Cons want to torture and kill gay kids.
And since we all know how he is using bigotry to hijack this election.
When I see how some progressives are moaning and groaning or surrendering to despair. Or playing stupid partisan games. Or trying to figure out how many angels can fit on the head of a pin.
I've gotta say I really like this song.
It's sad that Tony Turner, who wrote and sings the song Harperman couldn't be there in person.
He's been suspended from his job as a scientist at Environment Canada for simply exercising his right to free expression, and forced to keep a low profile.
But wherever he was today he must smiling to know that his song was played all over Canada today.
Like at this rally on Parliament Hill.
Well as you know he's tortured us for more than eight years, not just with his ghastly policies.
But also with his "singing."
That monstrous wailing and screeching designed to make us believe that he's really a nice guy.
No matter how much it hurts our ears, or embarrasses us in the eyes of the world.
So now that his hideous reign is nearing an end, I thought it might be a good idea to play this farewell song for Steve...
