Stephen Harper Smoked Pot

I think I cracked the mystery of Harper's "Liberals hate Jews" rant that I mentioned earlier. His argument seems to be that the Liberal party, which has a few humanitarian abuses to it's record, does not have the right to lecture the Conservatives on their bigotry today.

Does this remind anyone of something? Suppose you were caught coming home drunk or stoned - not that this ever happened to anyone I know. Suppose further that your parents were drinkers, or smoked the occasional joint. What's your first recourse as an angry teen?

"So I had a few drinks! You did it when you were my age!"

Except, of course, for the Conservatives, it's more like:

"So I hate gays! You used to hate Jews, and Japanese, and the French! You're not my real mom! I didn't ask to be born! I HATE YOU! YOU'VE RUNIED MY LIFE! Can I have my allowance?"

So that's my theory. Stephen Harper is on drugs, and just got caught by daddy.

(Makes as much sense as anything else...)
