Harper In Boston For NHL Game: "all the Conservative party reporters were taking photos - I'm sure it was a good photo-op for them."
Conservative hacks are desperately trying to spin it that Stephen Harper flew to the NHL Playoff game in Boston at taxpayers expense 'to represent Canada'. American media at the event claim it was more like a 'Conservative Party photo op'. Nice! Keep up all of the 'fiscal conservatism' Harper!!
"BOSTON (NEWS1130) - Devastated by a 4-0 loss to the Bruins in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final in Boston, Canucks superfans The Green Men did leave TD Garden with another unique experience.
As soon as the game started, someone came down to where Force and Sully were sitting behind Boston goalie Tim Thomas. Speaking live on the News1130 Evening Show, Force says she told them Stephen Harper was in the crowd, and asked "if they'd like to meet him, because he wants to meet you!"
"Absolutely, I've never met Stephen Harper," replied Force. In the second intermission, the Green Men were walked over by security to the Prime Minister's section in the arena. Force says Harper was waiting in his seat.
"He chatted with us for about three minutes, all the Conservative party reporters were taking photos," he explains. "I'm sure it was a good photo-op for them."

Harper knew the auditor General was releasing a damning report today, and wanted something promoting him in the papers and on television. If it wasn't hockey, he'd be showing up somewhere supporting troops, or similar.
