He does not have his old man's moxy. Pierre would never have used such a euphemism.

Potty mouthed twit should understand that language like that is only effective if you have the testicular fortitude to back it up, which, given his lame apology he obviously doesn't.

Otherwise, it's just another ineffective slur that shows a definate lack of respect for the office he holds.

Looks like we don't have to annex Canada after all. Canadians are evolving into Americans in the highest halls of power.

Parliament in Canada or any other Westminister style assembly has always been a bit rough. The distance between opposing sides of the House has traditionally been in excess of the length of two drawn swords.

That's from the Canadian parliament website. Canada has a long history of tempestuous sittings.

I think this one is slightly more attainable. A few hundred as opposed to a few billion.

Funny part is this story made more headlines than the issue that caused him to engage his potty mouth in the first place.
