You know I spend so much time warning people that Stephen Harper is a bully, a political thug, and a dangerous maniac, I sometimes forget to mention the obvious.
He is also an incompetent idiot.
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s my job to be blunt. So I’ll just say it: Stephen Harper is incompetent.
I know that’s not his reputation. Lots of people accuse him of being ruthless, or an ideologue, but he’s usually credited with being a basically competent manager.
He doesn’t deserve that credit.
A man so incredibly incompetent he would gut bludgeon a census with a sledgehammer because he claimed it's an invasion of privacy.
Or whatever the voices in his head told him to say that day...
Only to replace it with something even MORE intrusive.
With registry-based data systems, every person is given a government ID number, required by law to register a raft of personal data, and further required to constantly notify the government of any change in address, job, family relations, car ownership, etc. And all this information is linked and centralized.
In short, anyone who thinks the mandatory census is unacceptably intrusive should find this positively Communist.
OMG. And I thought he was a fascist eh?
To be clear, there’s nothing wrong with questioning the census or any other status quo. Indeed, it’s always good practice to consider the relative merits of alternatives.
But as any reasonably competent manager knows, you do that before, not after, you pick up the sledgehammer and smash stuff.
Who after he fools dumb Canadians into giving a majority, plans to put down the hammer and pick up a chainsaw...
And saw slash mutilate Canada beyond recognition.
Which I guess proves my original point eh?
He may be an idiot, and a hopeless incompetent. But he's also a dangerous MANIAC.
And in a country full of dummies.
The sooner we get rid of him, the safer we'll ALL be....

A few weeks ago the BBC angered a lot of gay people by asking the Christianist fanatic Stephen Green to comment on the birth of Elton John's son. Even though he is a vicious homophobe.
Green has gone on record championing the Ugandan Anti-Homosexuality Bill, which would sentence LGBT people to death or life imprisonment. When rugby star Gareth Thomas came out of the closet, Green called him a threat to children, and said that LGBT people should be publicly hanged in order to keep children safe. And he once said that gay people are akin to Jeffrey Dahmer.
And then refused to apologize.
Now his wife has filed for divorce, claiming he treated her like a slave, and savagely beat her and the children.
‘He told me he’d make a piece of wood into a sort of witch’s broom and hit me with it, which he did,’ she recalls, her voice tentative and quiet. ‘He hit me until I bled. I was terrified. I can still remember the pain.
‘My eldest son was hit with a broomstick and kicked on the back of his legs. He still has scars on his shins. On one occasion Stephen beat him so hard with a piece of wood that we thought he might have broken his arm. When we took him to hospital, my son pretended he’d fallen because he didn’t want to incur his father’s anger.’
Oh boy. When I read about filthy bullies like Green, their cowardly violence still shocks me. Even though I've been fighting them most of my life.
But as PZ Myers points out why should anybody be surprised?
Christianists are evil people, and religion is the greatest fomenter of blind hatred the world has ever known.
The Harper government is crawling with these kind of fanatics, who would take women and gays back to the Middle Ages.
The BBC should be ashamed of themselves.
And Stephen Green should be JAILED...
