As Walt told you in "Canada's PM Harper hid in closet during attack", when Michael Zehaf-Bibeau (whom the Mounties now think might possibly have been motivated by Canada's foreign policy) opened fire in the Hall of Honour of Canada's main parliament building, Dear Leader Steve Harper ducked into a closet, while the rest of his party's MPs barricaded themselves inside their caucus room. [I think the title of the earlier piece made that clear. And the sentence is too long anyway! Ed.]
Any suggestion that Mr. Harpoon's bail-out could be construed as an act of cowardice is, of course, totally without foundation. Honi soit qui mal y pense! But just to make that clear, Steve made a grovelling apology to Tory MPs at this morning's caucus meeting, held in that very same room.
According to CBC News, "Harper told his hushed caucus Wednesday morning he felt remorse for surreptitiously ducking into a closet during last week's assault on Parliament Hill.... The prime minister...told some MPs he felt terrible leaving them behind while he was hustled off to a more secure location."
Terrible... really terrible... You bet, eh! But hey, Obama would have done the same thing, wouldn't he. The countries of the Coalition need their heads of state/government to lead the way to glory and, errr, well... glory, then... in Iraq and Syria [No! Just "the Levant"! Ed.] Stay strong, guys!
