As predicted in earlier posts the Oracle of Ottawa has got it right and early again. Robo-gate continues to unfold. It is the 'Harper Government' version of Nixon's Watergate! Unlike Nixon who just attempted to break into one isolated place, the 'Harper Government' or the minions thereof went very many degrees better than that. Through the alleged use of massive robot phone dialers, big, ugly, right wing government imposed themselves as officials of Elections Canada. Sending the gullible to polling stations hither and yawn that of course did not even exist. Many narrow races were decided in the 'Harper Government' favor.
Wanted: Pierre Poutine - off white complexion
and very greasy
One character has already reached for the top of the bucket of swill and will not go away. The name Pierre Poutine just keeps being mentioned. Watergate had Deep Throat and Robo-gate has Pierre Poutine! The lineup is already starting to gel. At least Richard Nixon had guys like E. Howard Hunt and John Dean. The 'Harper Government' has? Yeah... They are so fucked, aren't they?
And in all of my years of public life, I have never obstructed justice. And I think, too, that I can say that in my years of public life, that I welcome this kind of examination because people have got to know whether or not their President is a crook. Well, I'm not a crook. I've earned everything I've got. Richard Milhous Nixon, Press conference, Walt Disney World, November 17, 1973
As the Oracle of Ottawa has repeatedly stated in this humble blog, a twelve member majority in the House of Commons, is hardly a major majority. And the Oracle of Ottawa has told his dear readers many times that it could and most probably will vaporize in a mere flash of a moment in time. Imagine the scenario! Elections Canada and the RCMP, guided by the Communications Research Establishment and no doubt CSIS, slowly get the goods on the various dirty tricks onslaughts, and one by one the by(e)-elections are ordered. And, one by one, the strong, stable Conservative majority government dissolves away like a really bad dream.
When the going gets weird....
We all know that in the light of a really bright day, there is no honor among thieves and conservatives. The ensuing "circle jerk" of give ups will result in some very high profile mandatory sentences of your favorite family values candidate and present member of parliament! Why the Oracle of Ottawa fore see's one particular young angelic choir boy heading up for a stretch in Federal penitentiary, where he will finally be able to get some real praying in. They really love them young and pretty in Kingston! Barhaven will be lonely without him...
In one respect we can all sleep well and easy tonight. Canada is not going to the "Right" after all! There was no way that the right wing wack-balls of the 'Harper Government' could have possibly won a majority government fair and square! The election for the members of the 41st Parliament was a fraud after all! But not even the Oracle of Ottawa in his most fowl and cynical mood, could have for-scene the utter sleaze of it all!
Old Steve will say he had no knowledge of the alleged dirty trick campaigns, but it will be all for nought (knot?). It happened on his watch and he will be ultimately held responsible. Sounds like a great place in Canadian history!
Is this the way it will look in Ottawa shortly? (Is that Hunter S. Thompson at 2:35, just like he wrote about it?)
