Jelly Beans Indeed!
Do the three amigos really think that we’re so stupid as to think they spent millions of taxpayers dollars to have a meeting about jelly beans!! Let us pretend that the jelly bean thing was not just a pathetic ploy to make many concerned Canadians look like conspiracy theorists - then they are seriously telling us that these leaders have nothing better to do than the bureaucracy’s job of wrestling over the minutiae of jelly bean labels. Give me a break!
It is well known that they are planning, in their own words, “integration by stealth”, that they are planning energy routes through Canada that are governed by harmonized security regulations, that they are planning to lower the standards on pesticide use on foods . . . If they are only planning boring things of no interest to anyone but specialists – as they love to say – why not just publish an agenda of the meeting and the topics discussed? Why treat the opposition leaders who together represent the majority of Canadians with puerile sarcasm and disdain?
The only people in the entire TV coverage of Montebello that had anything to say that was not spin and deception were the protesters interviewed on CPAC, and I don’t mean the ones planted there by some “law enforcement agency” to incite rioting. I wonder if the US has also proposed harmonizing their methods in that regard.

Look, Harper is just a plain ol' hick who likes to think he's a powerful personality but all that Stevie can muster up given his very limited background and seriously limited worldliness is sarcasm to substitute for the wit he lacks. If you want a real read of the man watch his eyes and his mouth. He won't look the other guy in the eye. Stevie is also heavily reliant upon a smirk because he simply doesn't have enough human warmth for a sincere smile.
But it's all about leadership, right? He's a strong leader, right?
It's clear that Steve thinks of himself as a Putin or, even a Trudeau but the sorry fact is, Steve is a small potatoes Bush, equally reliant upon spoon fed sarcasm in place of wit.
As for the jellybean comment, it wasn't very smart to give a back-handed smack to one of Canada's most prominent businessman. Steve's hillbilly inexperience and ignorance continues to show through.
