It's Going To Have To Be A Helluva Speech

    Question Period in the House may be the last unscripted political moment left. Some good insults and it's always fun when the Speaker tosses someone out of the session for indiscrete remarks.

    Most famous moment was when former PM Trudeau mouthed "fuck off" at a member of Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition. When questioned afterward he denied it with a straight face. He claimed that he had said "fuddle duddle".
     
  2. F-bombs on the floor of the national legislature.
    One of the few things that Pierre Trudeau and Dick Cheney have in common.
    ("Nice-looking wives" is definitely not one of them.)

    What Maines said was just as stupid as anything Bush has said. She could have been, oh, a little more mature and articulate than that.

    I think a five-minute major in a penalty box would be more appropriate.

    And I bet Dick's wife never partied with the Rolling Stones.

    I thought tree huggers lived on the west coast?
     
  7. Shrubbery-huggers here in the East.

    Sirs, Madames,

    I'll be counting references to "working hard" and "hard work" and "hard-working Americans" ... references made by a President who has spent more time on vacation than any previous president and who has worked hardest over two terms on the treadmill (in the gym and on the metaphorical one) and the bike trails.

    YHS, etc

    On the east coast, they are leaf-peepers.

    Sounds like a drinking game if I've ever heard one.

    Maybe he'll announce that he's appointed Jack Bauer to head of Homeland Security.

    And when he gets through "Homeland," he'll give us a shit-eating grin signally he successfully managed to say a "big" word.
