You Americans thought this was moderately nauseating? Well, buckle up, baby:
He doesn't steal any money. He doesn't offer cabinet posts as candy to entice weak-willed MPs to his side for the sake of a vote. He doesn't ignore non-confidence votes for a week while looking for that extra vote. He runs on ideas and on policy instead of lies and fears and smears. He reaches out and gains support from every region of the country.
He pulls together a cabinet out of the best offered to him by all the voters in this country and not just those who voted for him. This includes someone from another party, universally seen as qualified for the post, even perhaps the best man for the post.
He has broken no rules. Indeed, he has used all the rules to explore all the possibilities, instead of being constrained by narrow thinking and the regularly beaten path.
He has made brave decisions and creative ones, instead of safe and conventional ones.
For that his supporters, especially those online, have excoriated him, called for the resignation of his cabinet minister, called his ethics into question, called his ability to lead into doubt.
And why? Because he has led where few have gone, those who had preceded him content to be conventional and parochial, beholden to traditions that had led us to the state of affairs that dominated the last dozen years and more.
Fellatio. It's not just for the opposite sex anymore.

You know, before I clicked on that link, before I even hovered on it to see who had written that stuff, I just knew it had to be Steve Janke.

Are we supposed to be impressed that Harper offered a cabinet post as candy to entice a weak-willed MP to his side for the sake of his cabinet, instead?
