Tough to have any sympathy for an aide to the Prime Minister under the situation described:

Political foes demanded the ouster of Francoise Ducros for what she said Wednesday at the NATO summit in Prague. Ducros offered her resignation Friday, but Chretien refused to accept it.

"What a moron," is the quote attributed to Ducros, Chretien's communications director, during what she called a private conversation with a reporter that was overheard by other reporters who wrote about it.

Bet it was in the ladies' room...only place to have a "private conversation" after all. :-/

I missed the Buchanan remarks, and asked my husband about them and he missed them, as well.

Buchanan isn't part of the administration, he's just a commentator. Kind of off the wall.
