—The First Lady of the Great White North
I may be a small-L liberal, but I remain an unabashed fan of Laureen Harper. One of the best Prime Ministerial spouses to appear on the scene in our history, I dare say. More here.
mmmm… I liked Aline Chretien, Margaret Trudeau, and Maureen McTeer far better.
The only thing I’ll give ya is that Laureen Harper is better than Martin’s wife. She was a dud!
Seriously? She’s completely invisible out here in the toolies.
I suspect the sterilized & homogenized public personas of “Lurleen & Cletus” will always be an inspiration to the evangelical fundamentalist Canadian neo-con crowd whose idea of heaven on earth is possessing a “green card” to coordinate with their illegal handguns and environmental depredations.
And for the rest of us? Meh………….not so much.
First Lady?????!! Please.
What the hell? Babble much?
Babbles lots.
Neither “Cletus nor Lurleen” are Obama league orators, but “babbles much” is perhaps a tad harsh considering professional spokespeople & communications departments do most of the “talking” for them.
LOL. Insightful.
Oh yeah, “Cletus and Lurleen” classy. Plan to win votes with that one or do plan on using some lines from the “Jamal and Shanqiua” show.
If this is a character you’re playing, well done. Excellent trolling. However, if this is not satire, then this comment is only slightly less offensive than a “we get letters” post. Either way, ripping good laugh.
She may be the greatest person to have ever walked the earth, but she’s not our “First Lady.” She’s the woman who happens to be married to our prime minister and is no more first lady of Canada than Jane Rounthwaite is first lady of Ontario.
Wow, some real small minded people here.
She’s pretty great. Does a lot of good around town too.
um, dude?
SMALL
L?
What’s wrong with that? Can’t do any federal stuff, ’cause I write about federal stuff for the Sun chain. Won’t do any provincial stuff, because a decade is plenty.
Small “l.” Unless you want me to join another Liberal Party!
You could always join the New Brunswick Liberal Party. You’d be welcome here.
Yes Warren you have fought the good fight as a conservatiive small ‘l’ liberal for over twenty years.
Yes! Harper’s wife is a genuine, warm hearted human being who is probably also a conservative small ‘l’ liberal like many Calgarian women and men that I know.
But, unlike Duffy’s smoozing, this will not get you a Senate seat!
Let’s us all know what your future portends!
You will be missed.
