... and forwards it on. ;)

In among this past week's crop of bigoted bilge (she passes that on only to share the pain), was this.

It's Canuckistanian, but I suspect it didn't originate in that form (and you may well have seen it in one closer to home already) -- so feel free to substitute the name and venue of your choice!

Stephen Harper is the current and, it is devoutely hoped, not for long Prime Minister of Canada. No one except George Dubya Bush has ever called him "Steve".






The Pope and Stephen Harper are on the same stage at the Air Canada Center in front of a huge crowd.

The Pope leaned towards Mr. Harper and said, "Do you know that with one little wave of my hand I can make every person in this crowd go wild with joy? This joy will not be a momentary display, but will go deep into their hearts and they'll forever speak of this day and rejoice!"

Harper replied, "I seriously doubt that! With one little wave of your hand....Show me!"













So the Pope backhanded him and knocked him off the stage!

AND THE CROWD ROARED & CHEERED WILDLY!

Kind of brings a tear to your eye, doesn't it?

Don't thank me, thank whoever made it up ;) ... probably about a politician I have warmer feelings for than I do for the cold and horrible Stephen Harper.

Our leaders' debate is tonight. Here's hoping he's as cold and horrible as usual.

Feel free to just substitute the politician of your choice and knock somebody else off their computer chair. ;)
