It is an error in analysis to put the call-to-arms by Harper and the Con's last December on the same plane with the 'opponents of prorogation' protests on the Internet.
The former was a show of strength not a show of (anti-) support. It represented a 'mobilization of troops' in a fashion that has been repeated countless times since mankind first organized into groups and not an Internet-arm-chair exercise in Democracy.
'Arma virumque cano' (in case Flanagan might read this. I just learned that Tom, mastermind behind Harper and the Con's acquisition and maintaining power, was actually born in Ottawa. Oh, a Canadian - Not! That's Ottawa, Illinois - but then Harper probably prefers Ottawa to be in the US anyway - i.e. in the right wing, conservative heartland, USA - I wonder what Flanagan and the other right wing extremist Harper political advisers from the US do when we sing "Oh Canada, we stand on guard for thee" - anybody notice)
It is no co-incidence that Harper and the Con's employed such tactics when they were in the process of suppressing our Democratically elected Institutions last December in order to keep a grip on power.
The problem is that Harper and the Con's have 33% diehard supporters that are, for one, a source of unending funds (legally contributed, of course) and unquestioning support that Harper seems to be able to radicalize at the drop of a hat.
During the holidays someone posed the question:
How did a Party so politically and media inept that the considered calling themselves "Canadian Conservative Reform Alliance Party" (C-CRAP) evolve into the tight, well oiled Political entity with a propaganda machine the likes of which has not been seen in Western Democracies in recent times that is on the verge of eliminating our Democratic Institutions and establishing dictatorial rule by the Executive Branch of government. I would love to hear suggested explanations.
