David and Goliath

There can be no doubt that in its treatment of the Palestinian people - not Hamas, not Hezbollah, but the people of Palestine - Israel is Goliath and David is Palestine.
Jubilee politics need to be practiced in Israel-Palestine, sanctuary politics, and the spiritual depths need to be inhabited by Israelis, before the battered and abused people of Palestine can ever hope to move away from the options offered by Palestinian gangsters. That is the flaw of a long occupation, the victims lose everything but a willingness to be led by individuals hard enough to engage in endless vendetta. And when the people become reliant on gangsters, they become twice doomed.

Harper - the self-lamed Duck PM

The master of the self-inflicted wound will waddle into 2009 and stumble around in his self-delusion for a few more months before the Canadian people will finally put him out of his misery and consign him to a footnote in history and his party to an internecine deconstruction process in which the reactionary Harrisite-Harpercons will be sheered off into the abyss of eternal damnation. Somebody say amen.

Flaherty says 'deficits short term'

But since everything else he has said has been untrue, short term deficits must also be a lie. That's how Harpercon Harrisite-speak works, the common sense revolution was a lack of common sense reaction, Harper's four year term wasn't, no deficits means deficits. You get the idea. It happens when you think that the truest thing on earth is that you won a mandate from all Canadians instead of less that 38%, twice in row, the lie becomes the truth and the truth becomes a lie.

Blue-Sweater Harper

I want to urge all Canadians to buy up blue sweaters and lob them at the PM whenever he comes to your neighbourhood. No shoes, no stones, no bricks, no heavy objects inside them, except the weight of our communal contempt. Blue-sweater the PM I say.

Senator Mike Duffy

Harper's CTV infotainment specialist gets a senate seat for helping the Con's con the public in the last election and since.

It's those 21 new seats in Ontario

Big Blue Says spend Big, and ride Obama's coattails to victory next election, forget the conservative base, win Ontario and win the government. The only problem is Harper will be Harper, and he will destroy his Party with his lack of genuine foresight, when he will be seen to be an actual reactionary, unable to predict anything. His focus is on destroying his enemies, not blessing them. He will reap the malice he has sown. He will be harvested while over-reaching himself at the wrong time some day, sooner than later.

Resign

Harper and his finance minister - in fact - his whole cabinet - should resign for the depth of their deceit about the state of Canada's finances. Igantieff should form a full party, proportionally representative coalition cabinet - including a green, and any conservative progressives not tainted by having served as Harper's puppet.
