P: That's not my husband but he's a normal American who just works hard and doesn't want government to take his money. S: Yes, yes, I understand we have the equivalent of Joe the Plumber in France. It's called Marcel, the guy with bread under his armpit. P: Right, that's what it's all about, its the middle class and government needing to work for them. You're a very good example for us here. | ||

It was funny but obviously edited to make people look stupid. I can't believe how long this went on for and how completely clueless she is. Anybody know which montreal radio station pulled this off? watch the whole thing, she asks the same question. | ||

There is no prime minister of quebec, he made up names for everyone else....Canadian comics/radio hosts routinely do this because its such a joke that American politicians don't know shit when the US/Canada share the largest border/trade relation on the planet -_-;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; Yeah, cuz it's not some random yahoo from bumfuck Alabama who doesn't know who these people are. It's a person who could potentially be hold the second highest position in our goddamned country, and she doesn't even know any of those people, or that the positions don't even exist? Hur hur, she's down to Earth and real; an every day woman. Terrific. Go work at fucking McDonalds then. Leave the big important jobs to educated people who can formulate a coherent thought and actually know what in the fuck is going on in the world that they will influence dramatically. | ||

Listening to her on the phone, I can't help but feel really sorry for her. She's just in way over her head. There's so much to her voice in this one phone call that tells so much about her. However the sympathy I have for her is reduced significantly for so many other reasons. I really dislike the prank itself and didn't find it funny. | ||

Her worst mistake by far was accepting the vice-presidency position in the first place offered by her running mate. Some people just don't seem to get that point .. put it this way, it's like if you are and orderly and you accept a position for neurosurgery? Would you understand that? Simply to say "yes" given her previous experience and preparation means that she does not have a real sense of patriotism and put hers ambition over everything else, or worse still which is what I suspect, she does not have an inkling of her own limitations. We are talking about a leadership position in one of the largest global empires in human history.. It shows also the serious short comings of her running mate; instead of picking from the best, he picks what? I am still baffled at his decision. Like I said before, watch McCain speaking just 15 years ago, the difference is very pronounced, he has all the signs of dementia, he is only half the man he was once.. | ||
