The other day I wrote a post criticizing Stephen Harper for negotiating a deal to sell armoured cars to Saudi Arabia, that includes a multi-billion dollar cancellation penalty.
And I thought it was clear enough.
Only to have the miserable Mound of Sound, who hates me almost as much as he hates Justin Trudeau, come after me again.
He liked to portray himself as a champion of human rights, and the leader of the war against cultural barbaric practices.
But Stephen Harper never lifted a finger to ask the barbaric regime in Saudi Arabia to stop savagely flogging the blogger Raif Badawi.
Even though his family lives in Canada...
Because he was too busy cuddling with the King and selling him armoured cars.
In the latest chapter of the grotesque love story between Stephen Harper and the backward rulers of Saudi Arabia, today I have both good news and bad news.
The good news is that the brutish flogging of the blogger Raif Badawi has been at least temporarily postponed.
The case of a Saudi blogger sentenced to 1,000 lashes has been referred to the Supreme Court by the king's office, the BBC has learned.
Blogger Raif Badawi's wife said the referral, made before he was flogged 50 times last Friday, gave him hope that officials would end his punishment.
A second round of lashings was postponed for medical reasons.
And the bad news? Saudi Arabia is still the same barbarous country.
