Sorry, your country's leader can't beat this awesomeness

Here it is. I’ll bet they got him out with a kitten.

My god, Cheney’s facial expression in that picture is exactly like the Penguin. I can actually hear him cackling.

Okay, that’s definitely a contender.

I’m going to ask that the PM Harper bathroom allegation discussion goes on in a different thread - this was just meant to be some light-hearted fun.

Yeah, seeing the thread title I thought this was going to be another Putin thread. But a man’s man doth not protest so much, if you know what I mean. It would not surprise me at all if Putin were secretly gay. (Not that there’s anything wrong with or necessarily unmanly about that, but given cultural attitudes . . .) And I’d be sleeping with one eye open for the rest of my life if I dared post that while in Russia.

See, I can get behind that theory, Koxinga. President Putin seems over-the-top butch, and PM Harper likes to play with fuzzy kittens - Russia has imploded, and Canada has plans to start stockpiling…but I’ve said too much already.

I saw the OP picture last night and have to say that I can’t totally disapprove of a catlover, regardless of his politics. :slight_smile:

Does it get better if I tell you he was dancing at his wedding to his third wife… his third simultaneous wife?

I’ve always wondered who the other two in that picture are. Are they the ones giving the gift? They have a really frightening look about them. They make me think of the Hapsburgs.

I thought this was awesome.

I’ve always liked this article/pic of all the party leaders participating in a charity BBQ. I imagine if the US did the same thing, instead of cooking hamburgers with Obama, Cheney would make him the hamburger.

Ah, yes… I hear he massages the kittens, so by the time they’re on the dining table, they’ll be nice and supple.

A Prime Minister Imitates Hollywood

That’s the actual Hungarian Prime Minister? That is pretty awesome!

Okay, I will grudgingly admit that there are and have been some awesome world leaders. :slight_smile:

And Putin can sing too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IV4IjHz2yIo Truly a Renaissance man.

We’ve had our share of strangler leaders, and that includes leader-strangling leaders!

I’m afraid that this pic of the PM just made me think of this other notable cat-lover.

So I went Googling for the kitten pic in the OP and came across this: Things Harper Does To Seem Human. I am highly amused!
