Hello Darkness! The Official Blog of Helen Keller

Folks,

The Comment Corner usually isn't used for politics. Firstly, Canadian politics don't have an international vibe; they're not good for ratings. They're less sexy than a brass-knuckled punch to the starfish. I'm a total whore for numbers. If I have to put up photo-shopped pictures of Eva Longoria munching Katie Holmes' snatch to cram in a few more visits, so be it. The more people that visit the Corner, the bigger the hard-on I get. So, normally I avoid any discourse about Canadian politics, or politics in general here, and instead call people cocksuckers who have the wrist-rester on their mousepad. Fucking sissies.

However, throwing caution to the wind and doing aside with ratings, Stephane Dion is a fucking idiot.

He's not a leader, he's not good at his job of being leader of the opposition and he's always got the pissy look of a 12th grade physics teacher whose class isn't listening.

I've noticed that his political style is nothing but a pure contrarian. No matter what Stephen Harper does, Munchcock Dion simply pukes out the opposite. Harper wants to extend Canada's mission in Afghanistan, Dion wants it commuted. Harper wants to cut the GST, Dion wants to raise it. Harper ignores the scandal with Mulroney, Dion raises it to the forefront. Now, what happens if Dion's contrariness threatens to force an election? He wimps the fuck out.

This is not good opposition. Being a part of the opposition doesn't mean simply being a contrarian and calling black to everything the government calls white. Sometimes, the government is acting in the people's best interest and it's okay for the opposition to agree with the ruling party. But blanket and blind opposition to everything the current government stands for means that the opposition spends its credibility with the public. Now, when there's a serious issue that the current government intends upon doing, the opposition has cried wolf for so long that the public gives it a pass; it's the opposition simply being a tired, worn out pack of flaccid dicks. The whole goddamn point of an effective opposition is an elected group of people who will keep their fucking eyes peeled, watching over the government and screaming blue murder when the government tries to pull a fast-one. Otherwise, bills that make good sense can be supported by the opposition. The world isn't going to end if there's a unanimous house vote.

Before anybody mentions Jack Layton, let me be the first to say he's needs a fucking wrecking ball to the mouth like Ben Affleck needs acting tips. Fuck him. He started the whole yappy Corgie "Whatever the government just said, I whole-heartedly disagree" fuckface routine. Dion's just in a position which makes the whole thing stink of ratshit.

Consequently, Harper's golden right now. The opposition is in total shambles, led by a white-haired insecure tit that would probably count the number of nuts in his spumoni ice-cream and raise holy hell that it didn't equal the fruit bits.

Canadians deserve better than they're getting from Dion. He wrote the Clarity Act. Good for him. Now perhaps somebody can write the Good Opposition Act and ram it up his ass.
