The Harper Contest Continues



Lots of good observations and suggestions coming in. The above picture of The Blue Meanie was offered by Peter Leslie in the Facebook group Canadians Rallying to Unseat Stephen Harper (C.R.U.S.H.) It seems a most apt rendering of Dear Leader, and that very fashionable blue is sure to appeal to his acolytes.

Also on Facebook, Skeena has compiled a series of memes inspired by Michelle Rempel's bedroom selfie.

Here are two of them that do real justice to the Cowardly Lion residing at 24 Sussex:





Enjoy, and I hope these pictures inspire more submissions.

  1. Putin must be telling closet jokes to anyone who would listen, I would wager. I suspect Putin would be braying that he would not have hidden in a closet.

    Imagine poking the eyes of both Putin and I.S.I.L. at every opportunity, and then been found to have run for the closet when a lone wolf, reprtedly with mental problems, and carrying an old hunting rifle, with at most five shots left, attacked Parliament.

    Where would Chief Hide in Closet and his acolyte, the redoubtable but not so brave as it turns out, Michelle Rempel, be if it were a real I.S.I.L. attack with AK 47's or M 16's or RPGs?

    Read that Diefenbaker had pointedly said that he refused to go into the Diefenbunker during a nuclear attack because his wife was not on the list of persons approved to be in there. Harper, evidently, did not harbor such concerns.

    Read also that during the attack on Parliament, the paraplegic MP, Fletcher, had apparently told his minder to leave him and to run and look out for herself. And yet there was his leader, Chicken Stephen, already in the closet. Chicken Stephen, clearly, knew when to run and look after himself.

    You could not write a funnier script for a comedy, eh?

    1. All of the pejorative descriptions of Harper's lack of courage, both physical and moral, seem particularly apt for a man of no substance, don't they, Anon? Let's hope that the Canadian people will develop sufficient perceptiveness to see through Dear Leader's hollow guise.

  2. That's the Closet Creep .. Stephen Harper
    and why so many unanswered questions?
    Like what aide was injured during or after the event & how
    Who else cut and ran with Clement & Rempel after the 'firefight'?
    Who described Vickers actions & to whom?
    Which MP told media Harper hid in a broom closet - after the 'firefight'?
    Who decided Speaker Scheer was qualified regarding a homicide investigation?
    So many facts denied, whisked away, obstructed, so many secrets
    nothing new with this government of ONE ..

    1. As always with this most secretive regime, Salamander, there are more questions than answers. The collective insult to Canadians is egregious.

  3. Hi, Lorne. I'm a little short on time to go through the list of entries but can you tell me if "sphincter" is already taken?

    Happy New Year and thanks for everything.

    1. Love it, Mound! Happy New Year to you as well. Let's hope 2015 brings some positive changes for all Canadians, eh?

  4. The Blue Meanie is so good Lorne and the picture is priceless. The problem with it is I think the word Meanie is not strong enough, maybe putting a word in front like The Cowardly Blue Meanie or another word that would fit. I don't know if that can be done.

    1. "Cowardly Blue Meanie' works for me, Pamela. Perhaps also a dash of 'Dastardly' for even greater verisimilitude?

  5. With all the shots happening out in the hall they didnot know it was just 1 guy
    My question is:did Stephen help the other MPs barricade the door?
    Also, why did the hero of the day empty his gun on the guy after he had shot him down?

    1. Those are good questions, Oemissions; I think we both know they will never be answered under this regime.
