The Sun and Jean Chretien
Jean Chrétien awoke one morning to a glorious day. The sky was clear, and
the
sun was bright and radiant. Jean decided to walk to Parliament Hill. As he
was
walking, he looked up at the sun, and said, "Mister Sun, oo is de greatest
Prime
Minister dis country 'as ever 'ad?"
The sun beamed down upon Jean, and in a booming voice responded, "Jean,
there is
no doubt that you are the greatest Prime Minister that Canada has ever had!"
Jean's chest puffed out and he arrived at work feeling wonderful and
important.
He had a marvelous day, so marvelous that he decided to walk home. The
evening
was as glorious as had been the morning.
As he walked, he looked up at the sun and asked, "So, Mr. Sun, am I not de
greatest Prime Minister Canada 'as ever 'ad?
The Sun looked down at him, and in a booming voice, responded, "Jean, you
are an
asshole. This country has never seen a worse Prime Minister in its entire
history."
Taken aback, Jean responded, "But dis morning, you said dat I was de
greatest
Prime Minister dis country 'as ever 'ad. Why did you change your mind?"
"Jean, this morning, I was in the East. Tonight, I'm in the West!"
