Belgium's Minister States He Would Vote Democrat-Whitehouse complains!
Edited on Fri Jan-30-04 12:46 PM by CityZen-X
Belgium's Minister van Buitenlandse Zaken during an interview in Belgium stated, "That if I were an American citizen, I would vote for a Democrat." And the WhiteHowzen has sent there number one lackey Colin Powell to wage a former complaint. Does anyone think that this vile, odious so called Bu$h*t government is totally losing it? In my opinion they are running scared.
I heard of this news item on a local talk show that broadcasts from th SF Bay Area. One of the callers was from Belgium and translated the article for Ray Taliaferro. I have tried to find it on the Internet in english, but no such luck. Here it is in Dutch for some of the more astute DUer's. I still am struggling with english and I was born in England! I would like to thank Tom out in Belgium who provided this link via Indymedia/Belgium.

5. US Media Search
I just got a e-mail from a person in Bankok who had another source of this story, but alas it is in French. Has anybody seen this story through our so called Free Press?

2. $10 says he waffle's
Doesn't Powell have anything better to do?? On a side note however, I don't really care how any foreign leader would vote. I only care that Americans get informed and shrub is on his way out. ABB :)

4. I Agree
but why the bizarre reaction coming from the Bu$h*t camp, thats the item.
This as far as I know has not been exposed in our media. But who am I kidding so have hundreds of other news worthy items.

8. That's sort of why Chimpy hated Chretien too.
The Canadian PM Jean Chretien's nephew, Raymond Chretien, was Canada's ambassador to the US and prior to the 2000 selection Raymond made a faux pas by announcing Canada would find it easier to work with Gore as president (or something to that effect). Actually he was just alluding to the fact that Al Gore would be more likely to be up to date and familiar with Canada/US issues whereas the Chimpster would be more likely to have spent most of his time dealing with US/Mexico issues. Diplomatically speaking, it was probably still a no no, and it did serve to get repug noses out of joint with the pinko, commie liberal government on their northern border. Unfortunately when PM Chretien's aid was overheard calling the moron a moron, it didn't help matters any either.

9. So Bush hates the Belgian PM for his freedoms
to say who he would vote for if he was an American.
Looks like the Belgian PM is an ABB* type of guy.

Hooray for Belgium and their FREEDOMS !!
