I don't believe that speaking French well is a plus. The PM of a billingual country has to be able to speak both languages, so the ability to speak French should be a given. Why don't you put down that they are all literate under the plus column instead.
I think Kennedy takes it on the 4th ballot.
I don't believe that speaking French well is a plus.
Tell that to Ken Dryden and half of the other candidates.
It is but a matter of semantics whether you think being able to speak well is a good thing or whether not being able to is a bad thing.
And cd, I hope you're right. Kennedy is definitely my favourite.
I think your all bush.. Kennedy is bush, and on the topic of speaking frech, well the french dont even wana be here so who cares if they understand our party leader.
What stimulating commentary.
Please tell me why exactly you think Gerard Kennedy is "bush". Or why I am "bush" (if that is what you were saying).
what I mean by bush is gross.. and Im not gonna lie ev, by the looks of your picture, your swing is gross to..
I know what bush means. I was asking why you think he's bush.
And I never claimed to have a great swing, although I wouldn't call it "gross". Just bad. I posted a different profile pic since you found that one objectionable.
yo ev man, your site is good times... keep up the good work. but on a bad note... your swing does look a little hurtin.
