Kerry speaks French better than Bush speaks English....Dean in Canada.

SNIP..."After correctly assessing that "the vast majority of us" would like to see John Kerry the next President of the United States, Dean pandered to an audience whose mother tongue is French.

"I know the Bush administration makes fun of (Kerry’s) ability to speak French. I find that is an incredible advantage over a president who can barely speak English," he said to laughter and guffaws.

SNIP.."Dean was in friendly territory. Seventy-one percent of La Belle Province residents, compared with 60 percent of Canada as a whole, would vote for Kerry, if only they could.

Dean was received as a conquering hero in the ballroom of Montreal’s ritzy Queen Elizabeth Hotel. The former Vermont governor sat at the head table sandwiched between Gilles Duceppe, leader of the Bloc Quebecois, and Raymond Chrétien, nephew of former Prime Minister Jean Chrétien. As Canadian ambassador to the United States, the junior Chrétien publicly expressed his support for Al Gore over Bush in 2000...."

SNIP.."Incredibly, the man whose own party decided he was a bit too loose cannon to run for president, accused Bush of petulance: "I’ve often said on my side of the border, and I’ll say on your side of the border, no matter what our differences may be, and there will be some, that petulance has no place in the design of American foreign policy."
