77 Year Old Jean Chretien Leaps Fence To Get To Interview
Former Prime Minister of Canada, Jean Chretien, gave observers a fright after the Jack Layton State Funeral, when he easily leaped over a barricade to give a promised interview to the media.
I can only hope to be as strong and agile as Jean is when I'm 77!

He's a classy guy and this post is dedicated to my blogging Liberal colleagues who have been nothing but classy and supportive this week as New Dems grieve the loss of our Leader. Thank you!
No need for thanks, Dog. Anyone remotely progressive feels the loss. I can't help but feel that Harper senses an enormous weight removed from his shoulders. Maybe this is a good moment for us to remember what we actually agree upon and stop playing into the far right's hands.
Hi Jymn .. This week reminded me of times when there has been a death in my family (both my parents are gone). During those times, friends and especially some neighbors were a huge help in helping us out with different things. - It felt like that this past week with a number of Liberal bloggers coming forward with support and friendship.
I miss Jean.

I meant 'wonderful' about the coming together, not the week itself.
