    So... how many takes did Dion get at this one?

    I said it before and I say it again.

    This "hearing" problem that Dion is suposed to have only started in the 2nd week of this election but there are no details or mention of this problem that pre-date this election. The man spent most of his life in politics yet this excuse shows up when he turns into a stuttering, incomprehensable bufoon.

    As low as making fun of someone's physical problems might be, it's even lower to pretend to have problems for sympathy.

    The hearing problem did not start during the election, only the highlighting of it.

    You are doing nothing more then attacking a man for having a physical disability. Whats next? Going to sneak up on blind people and scare them? Poke fun at people in wheelchairs?

    Really showing your true depth of character here riden. Truely the stuff conservatives are made of.

    Duffy makes a good point that if this was in French TV and it was a Gaffe by an English Politician fumbling in French they would have aired it as well. There is as point out however, a double standard:

    “They often require that a francophone speak an English that is almost perfect, but when an anglophone makes efforts they say he at least tries to speak French,” Mr. Duceppe said Friday. “I think there should be the same criteria for both.”


    So did you watch the actual interview that aired Rain? Not the outtakes but the real interview.

    No evidence exists before this month that Dion has any such hearing problem.

    We saw absolutely no evidence of this during the debates either.

    Why don't you folks simply admit that he has a drug abuse problem...


    Scape: Send along a link. I have but it's always good to see it again. XD

    No, you just don't want to own up to attacking somebody for a physical handicap. For most people something like that is a very personal thing and I'm willing to bet that he didn't make an issue about it throughout his life in order to avoid being labelled a sympathy hound. He simply overcame it as best he could.

    Now in the pressure cooker of an election and in the glaring spot light he has been forced to explain his private affairs in order to combat cheap shots by the cons.

    I for one am seeing more courage from Dion facing withering attacks then anybody has ever seen from Harper, a man who cries the media is out to get him every time a bad word gets printed about him (boo hoo sympathy hound).

    I don't dwell on trying to attack personal details like that or exploit someones medical condition. I simply judged each candidates platform and quite frankly the CPC platform is far less appealing then the NDP platform despite the economic risk it carries.

    The Cons have proven why they aren't ready to lead with a minority let alone a majority and thankfully we will vote that belief come tuesday.

    what I find amusing is Dion hammering on Harpers leadership...

    this is like the blind leading the deaf, Dion couldn't lead himself out of the house in the morning never mind a country.

    dion's wife picks his clothes for him to wear. If that don't tell you something I have no help for you.

    He can't even make that decision and some idiots what him to run the country.

    again hwacker, these details are immaterial to the socialist, they enjoy status quo of lie, cheat and steal at any cost. Then pass cash around in paper bags. It ensures they have years of port barreling as they can bribe others into not squealing.

    The more we talk about this, the more it hurts Dion.

    If you have to explain, you're losing.
