A Comment on Jim Flaherty

It is patently obvious that Flaherty dyes his hair.

It's pretty rich that a dunce who didn't even see the great recession coming (even after it had already hit the USA), and whose "action plan" had to be forced out of him, can still present himself as a sober, steady hand on the economic tiller.

It's a testimony to the intellectual bankruptcy of our hegemonic political-economic ideology.

It's one of life's mysteries that the man who left Ontario's finances in a shambles now parades as a sober federal Minister of Finance.

It's not a bad rug. It looks a little shabby, but when I looked closer I thought it was really his hair.

Not too many guy wear rugs these days.
