There is message discipline and then there is the odd case of when the message is disciplining you. Thank you sir, may I have another….
I half expected him to blink in Morse code to indicate that he was being forced to speak these words. Alas, alack.

Oh my gosh! Is that REAL? There is more variation from a music box. Has anyone checked the panel in his back? Maybe his memory card is full or something. Does he have a secret lump on the back of his jacket like GW did in the debates? Crazy is as crazy says. Crazy is as crazy says… All work and no play make Jack a dull boy… All work….

"Crazy is as crazy says"
You nailed it.

His memory card is full. Ha. That made me laugh out loud. It is so bizarre that he keeps saying almost exactly the same thing over and over. He's like one of my kids wind up toys.

Matt and Patrick:
I do believe that your strikes against this man are wrong. Negotiations are still going on. You both need to put aside the rhetoric and get round the negotiating table.

It is almost as though he is saying that when negotiations end, it is then OK to strike and make war against the other. A teacher once said that it takes seventeen times for a piece of information to be handed over before students catch on. This puts the man within the parameters of normal. But I do wish he had said more about bringing about peace, peacefully.

Bizarre. It's like he wanted that one soundbite to be the one the video editor chose to play on the nightly news so he just kept saying it over and over and over. And what kind of a creampuff interviewer did he have, letting himself get bulldozed by spin like that?

The reporter actually blogged about his interview here. He had to be very careful not to say anything too outrageous for fear of getting canned. It's really funny: http://www.twitlonger.com/show/bfensm

That's the leader of the labour party, and I can tell you from the time I worked in Parliameent that he's a loon.

@ Andrew: Loon? You don't say? 🙂
