I'm not nearly as optimistic about anything Harper does. Stephen Harper does nothing unless it aids Stephen Harper. It made for a great photo op, but I doubt there was a whole lot of sincerity in his actions...It's unfortunate in that it may have actually been a case of Harper displaying some compassion and humanity that I just can't wrap my head around, it just that we have been witness to his true colors for too long.I can't believe I am posting this...
I really can't stand Harper. I detest him. I cringe when I see his picture.
I don't know if he had ulterior motives, but today after he thanked the sergent-at-arms he crossed over the aisle and hugged the opposition leaders. I hope it was just a spur of the moment sincere gesture...it showed some class in my mind.
