Democracy...Harper and his base do not want freedom. Democracy, the rule of law, is in the way of Harpers power pursuit. As to his base, they are dogmatic true believers. I've been listening a lot to Joni Mitchell this week including her interviews. There is a short one with Charlie Rose and what she has to say about the state of the world particularly the US is pretty indicting. She is not only a great artist, but refreshingly she is very intelligent. If anyone is interested it's on YouTube at Greenroom with Joni Mitchell Charlie Rose by Charlie Rose. It's a 6:05 minute interview. If you want to go straight to her political comments they start around 4:27, but the interview itself is good. I just found it fitting in a bigger context to what's being discussed today.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07842215982128591742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35117130.post-8214592131304046162015-06-17T11:09:57.763-04:002015-06-17T11:09:57.763-04:00Trudeau is learning, Ron.
