Chretien's not big on that democracy stuff...
2002-06-26
Yesterday, in a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chretien, Mr Bush said: "What Palestinians need is leadership — elected leadership."

But Mr Chretien, while embracing Mr Bush's push for democratic elections, declined to back the call. "I don't have a specific point of view on that," the Canadian prime minister said.
Decisive, dynamic leadership, firmly grounded in principle... Will one of you guys in the Great White North tell him to shut up?

#3  With Chretien's slide in the polls from a 48% some months ago to 42% today, I wouldn't be so big on the "d" concept either, particularly as he seems to be following the Fuerher-Prinzip in running his own party.

#2  He can't understand us any more than we can understand him. English isn't his second language and I doubt French is his first. The man is an idiot and it's to our shame he's been running our country into the ground for as long as he has.

#1  We love to tell him to shut up but most of the time none of us can figure out what he saying
