Good Thing We've Got a Real "Law & Order" Prime Minister

Prime minister Stephen Harper can't stand crime. He can't stand it when white collar folks do it. He can't stand it when blue collar types do it. He really can't stand it when little kids do it. Makes no difference, Steve is going to see that all scofflaws get exactly what's coming to them.

That must be why Steve is so determined to get to the bottom of this business about Afghan detainee torture, right? What's that you say? Steve doesn't want to get to the bottom of this? He doesn't even want to talk about it? His henchmen have spent years trying to ensure that no one else talks about it either? Sort of like, erase the tapes and all that? Just like Nixon?

But we've got experts now, law professors who specialize in this sort of thing, maintaining that the powers that be in Ottawa may have been party to serious war crimes. War crimes! Oh, oh never mind. I get it. Steve isn't interested in all crime and he's especially not interested in war crime, especially when it seems to involve his office and his underlings.

Don't hold your breath for prime minister Law'n Order, or should that be Lawn Odor, to beat the bushes over this Afghan business. They're all born liars those Afghans, haven't you heard? All of 'em, even the innocent civilians. Trained right from birth to screw with our minds! Why you can't believe a word that comes out of their mouths. And, for that matter, you can't believe a word that comes out of the mouth of the top diplomats Steve had enough confidence in to send to Afghanistan either. Those guys are just crazy, whacky. Goofy loons, every man jack of them.

Move along now. Nothing to see here.
