Yoko Ono refuses to let war-loving Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper sing Imagine on YouTube

http://www.oyetimes.com/news/canada/10606-yoko-ono-refuses-to-let-war-loving-canadian-prime-minister-stephen-harper-sing-imagine-on-youtube


Poor Stephen Harper can’t get no respect. His attempt to play off the popularity of Maria Aragon has backfired.

Yoko Ono, a peace loving woman and keeper of John Lennon’s flame, had the Harper video of Imagine yanked off YouTube.

Nothing could be more false than Stephen Harper singing the famous Lennon hope for peace in the world.

Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

-snip-

“Harper would like to put all the gay, lesbian, activist female, abortionist, and left thinking Canadians back in a box. Then Harper and his right wing cronies can buy more fighter jets. They will have cleaned up Canada with missionary zeal.

-snip includes more lyrics and video-

hugs for yoko ono

2. I love Yoko Ono.
It's because she has balls like this that people hate her.

9. Hurrah for Yoko!

For so long, she got a lot of criticism, people making ugly remarks about her, accusing her of breaking up the Beatles, etc.

She's all right!

11. I have almost no heros.
John Lennon was one. Thank you Yoko for carrying his vision and not letting it be soiled by trash like Harper.

Yoko is helping the efforts to protect our water supplies from hydro-fracking, too.
