Yeah? So is Kim Jong Il.


Harper among the immortals
 
What a childish narcissist.

Every oncein a while, a mysterious Conservative emails a bunch of people to remind them that Stephen Harper is about to pass another prime minister in the longevity stakes. I got onto the recipient list when Harper passed Alexander Mackenzie in the autumn of 2010. Since then he’s passed Lester Pearson and R.B. Bennett and now he has John Diefenbaker in his sights.

Anonymous email to remind people how super-duper-phenomenal fatso is?  How pathetically self-important in that immature Look-at-me! way.  PMSHithead just doesn’t feel alive unless people are noticing him, does he?

Now, obviously longevity isn’t a sufficient condition of prime ministerial significance…But it should be clear by now that longevity is a necessary condition for any prime minister who wants to carry weight in the history books. Harper has already had an influence on Canada’s political culture, its foreign policy, on the practice of federalism and the evolution of social policy. Now he can start to make a difference comparable to anything Pearson and Diefenbaker made. If he wants. Harper’s (first?) coveted majority is already seven months old.



Sure, Paul Wells.  Because it’s all about steve being noticed.  Like Kim Jong Il, like Muammar Gaddafi, like Saddam Hussein, like the fucking Marquis De Sade.  Because that’s all we’ll get from a self-obsessed malignant narcissist who refuses to consider anyone’s opinions or expertise than his own, a self-serving power freak who holds onto power by dividing and tearing down anything his paranoid mind thinks is his enemy.  And when you are the only creature in the universe who really matters, everyone and everything is a potential enemy.  Even your most loyal supporters.

If they were still alive, he could ask Idi Amin, or Pol Pot, or Mussolini.  Or any mafia head.
