Jack and Gilles Went Up the Hill

All this talk of Jack and Gilles talking coalition is really hilarious.

The problem is, Gilles fears that the Québec branch of the Nouveau Parti dopiste (N.P.D.), led by the charming soft-spoken Mulcair, is trying to chip away at his left wing. So he did a sharp turn left in the last election to hold them off. If he's talking to Jack, it's to find out what the hell he is thinking under that shiny dome.

Grrr. Maudites socialistes.

Talk Tough Like Mike

•“Look, this is America and you have to decide what kind of country you want. This is your country as much as it is mine.” - 2004
*"Look, if I lose, I'll just move back to Massachusetts." - to the Harvard Crimson newspaper - 2006
*“If you mess with me, I’ll mess with you until I’m done.”
• "You're looking at someone who turned down the chance to become Prime Minister of Canada, and I did so, in part, because I felt it would divide the country."
• “I don’t need any lessons in legitimacy from Harper.”
• “He knows where to find me.”
• "He's creating a parliamentary crisis and dividing the country."
• "It’s his budget, not mine."
• "It's up to Harper to make the right decision and up to me to decide if he made it."
• "We're putting the government on probation."
•"Mr. Harper, your time is up.”
*"This is a prime minister who a year ago was trying to make you embarrassed if you liked opera or classical music or the ballet or poetry. I mean, come on, let's get over this. You can like hockey, you can like classical music. Let's stop playing Canadian against Canadian and taste against taste."
