Harper begs for money for his War on Truth, Free Speech and Free Thought

I can barely keep up with the ever growing harper lexicon of what is baaaaad.

Latest addition to the baaaad elitists are people with opinions.  

I’m wondering how people like Ezra Levant, KKKKate McMillan, Stephen Taylor, and Charles McVety feel about harper declaring war on them.

In a letter sent out in the past few days, Conservative Party President John Walsh is urging supporters to help the party counter a “hailstorm” of negative attacks from the media, pundits and the “opinion elite.”

Where does that leave the wisdom of the Tim Horton’s crowd?  Maybe Timmy’s should put up signs: “no opining.”

Harper knows the power of Sleight of Mouth  and has been linking perfectly good characteristics, professions, and groups of people to negative terms, probably since he realized that the world didn’t automatically buy into his conviction that he’s wonderful and anyone who disagrees is the enemy.  Lacking any actual proof that he is the embodiment of perfection, he probably decided to change words and their definitions to suit his deluded beliefs and convince others of them.  But I digress.

Neuro-linguistic programming  used among other things to change patterns of mental and emotional behaviour in others is a key weapon in the CPC arsenal even if most of the CONs are too stump-dumb ignorant to understand how it works.  You don’t need to understand how a sexually transmitted disease functions on a cellular level in order to spread it, for instance.

What harper and the neanders are doing is attempting to define what a good Canadian is and what a bad Canadian is, what a good group of people is and what a bad group of people is.  By linking these people and groups to favourable/unfavourable terms over and over, he can eventually get the stupider segment of the public to support or attack at his prompting.

Steve had defined so very many people and groups as baaaaad during his four year election campaign claiming that if only he had a majority, he could get things done despite the opposition of these baaaad elements.  Now that he has a majority, he can’t raise funds by going on about the long gun registry, the opposition stalling Bills, the unelected liberal Senate, senate reform...

He no longer has any effective opposition in Parliament so naturally looks to who else he feels he needs to silence.  No big surprise he wants to shut up the media and social networks.  But how will donations to CPC help him do that?  Massive negative ad campaigns  against the media and people with opinions?  Silencing those few independent thinking journalist with the integrity not to kiss his ass by getting them fired?

The letter does not say how the party plans to counter the groups it identifies as a threat.

Perhaps Stevie intends to use the funds to establish re-education camps.  

Facts published by the media or through social media would be threatening to the survival of a party and leader who have been found in contempt of Parliament, who have mislead the public on spending, who have violates spending rules, who have violated election rules, who continuously refuse to tell the public how their tax dollars are being spent, who falsify documents by altering them…

Even dumb ass, thick as concrete, atavistic neandercon fanatics with no opinions or original thoughts must realize that the electorate needs to be told these facts if they are to vote in an informed fashion.  Maybe even those dullards realize that harper can't possibly represent every single preference and ideal they embrace and that they may want the chance to express their own opinion in a democratic, effective fashion, just once in their life.

Maybe not.  To recognize those things requires at least a modicum of original thought.
