Jim Flaherty is all set for the budget speech. As being a true devotee to Bush, he first checked to see if the shoe fit his head. But would this shoe fit the opposition? Layton and Ducceppe have already shaken their heads and said it will not. Iggy is not sure as he is used to wearing American shoes. The problem for Flaherty is that his object of devotion, Bush, is gone and Obama's shoe may shrink his head.
Obama is a brilliant and a realist, he is extending a hand of friendship to the whole world. His stay in Indonesia was used against him by the neo-cons during election but he has turned it into an asset for reaching out to the Muslim world. It is hoped that it will be a kiss of death to the extremists as their cause to incite hatred against the US may wane. I may be writing more on this move of Obama later.
Back to the budget speech. Iggy is very shaky and tomorrow, Wednesday, we will know which direction his shoe rotates. Iggy may be a bright professor, but he is definitely a beginner in political field. Who knows, he may pick up a tip or two on the way. Time will tell. So far his performance has been nothing but disappointing.
