Right Wing US strategist thinks Canadians are liberal and hedonistic, but Harper can straighten us out...

Paul Weyrich says Canadians are "so liberal and hedonistic" that Stephen Harper can't hope to change their philosophy of "cultural Marxism" right away.

In his warped mind, Mr. Weyrich links same sex marriage, and abortion on demand to "Marxist" views... of course, he has no idea (or evidence) how these things have anything to do with Marxism. But then again, neither did Senator McCarthy, and look where he took the US!

Mr. Weyrich admits that there was a form of US right-wing gag order, for them not to speak to Canadian reporters during the election. I assume this is because they know the average Canadian does not want to be like them, and did not want to have people convinced of the Liberal claims Mr. Harper was too right-wing. For some reason he thinks it is in our best interests to change and become like them...

Maybe we should thank people like Paul Weyrich for having such close-minded views, spewing off such rhetoric for the rest of the world to hear. That way, we will always have a great example of what Canada does NOT want to be like!

Personally, I think this is the best compliment an American right-wing person could ever give Canadians. I guess he sees it as immoral to care about human rights, the poor, the sick, the elderly, and the unfortunate. For me, I am proud to live in a country where compassion trumps capitalism every time.

I heard this guy on Wingnut radio in Winnipeg over the weekend. It's a good thing this guy kept his mouth shut because even the typical right wing radio callers thought he was nuts.
