Former Prime Minister Jean Chretien talks with his communications director Peter Donolo in this June 20, 1999, photo.

I’m sick of the H1N1 plague, Act of God, pandemic, curse, Rumsfeld’s gold, whatever you want to call it. It’s just too stupid for words at this point. I simply can’t believe the media coverage of a simple flu bug that causes less damage than SARS did.

So today I’ve decided to laugh my ass off at poor Peter Donolo, who I’ve had the great pleasure of meeting, is a very nice fellow, and probably just accepted the biggest butt-frigging job a communications guru could take.

It makes me laugh to see how relieved Liberals are at the very mention of Peter’s name, like he was the Messiah or something.

I’ll point out a few facts most Liberals (also known as the 20 something crowd) fail to take into consideration:
