Costs $10 for a fancy dress at the local Goodwill. Shows how out of touch the man is:(
Nobody discusses that much of that arts money is artists/singers/dancers/filmakers etc. going into distressed neighbourhoods and helping community groups and vulnerable youth to become involved and learn new skills.
How is that person supposed to make a living while they are making this contribution that takes time and commitment?
I find it horribly insulting that he thinks all artists are rich. Most of us work very hard making art and teaching, etc for the betterment of our communities -- without compensation. Most artists consider themselves extremely fortunate if we can scrape a living doing our art. I know more small businessmen who go to galas than I know artists.
Stephen Harper pisses my off frequently, but the idea that he's so ignorant is just sad.
No, what is really sad is that 40% of the people will vote for him because he isn't Liberal. He defines Liberals and everyone listens. He defines conservatives and everyone listens. Where's the objectivity in the media these days? If Conservatives are the only people in the media defining politics how are people supposed to be informed with the truth?
You live with a lot of cats, don't you?

Harper is disgusting. It hurts me to be in another country with the host country knowing that I'm/we're being controlled by that SOB.
Canadians insult and criticize Bush and then vote for that half-wit. Good job.
