Only grip I have with him is seeing him attend an anti-gay marriage rally. Spouting things like "we much protect the sanctity of marriage", general bull*$*#.
I wish he would be more liberal on social aspects. I hate having parties that need to be conservative on everything or liberal on everything. We need a party that's a little bit of both.

yea, one of my biggest qualms with Harper is that he completely quashed the marijuana decriminalization effort that the Liberals started. now i'm far from a pothead, the last time i smoked was about 3 or 4 years ago. but i just find it so ridiculous that a drug which is not physically addictive and impossible to OD on can be thrown in the same category as cocaine and heroin. and if you want a major boost to the economy, especially on the west coast, it doesn't get much easier than legalization
apart from that i have no major complaints though. when Obama won the election with so much charisma and star power, i was a little bitter that our leader was so dull and boring in comparison. but watching Obama fritter away his good will by trying to please everyone and not taking a hard stand on anything, the comparison doesn't look so bad anymore
