Bob Geldof, the fading B-class rocker formerly of the "Boomtown Rats", recently made it known that Prime Minister Paul Martin wasnt welcome at the upcoming G-8 summit unless he was prepared to cough up .7% of Canadas Gross Domestic Product (GDP) to help "fight poverty" in Africa. Geldof must have the balls of a canal horse to think that who is or is not invited to attend the summit depends on him.

Boomtown What?
Bob who?
What an idiot! Why is it that folks like him think they can tell others what to do with their...
Nevermind,
I know.
Canada better be careful. I'm not entirely sure Geldof couldn't assemble a force necessary to defeat them militarily.
You know.. geldof... that old guy from lord of the rings.
I don't like mondays...
Actually...I always liked that song "I don't Like Mondays" but he's a jerkoff anyway.
Fading?
How much can that be? Fifteen pounds of back bacon and a toque?
Gee Canada,
you try to out=-liberal everyone with your pseudo-sophitry, and then the very libs you adore so turn against you. lie down with the dogs and, well, you know...
I don't have a problem with it, though. They are trying to raise money. I don't blame him for going balls to the wall. If you're gonna do it, might as well do it all the way.
Pretty bold for a guy whose songs only get played as bumper music on Jim Rome.
And some of the maple candies! Hop to it, Jacques!
And a six of Schooner Beer!
Sounds to me like old Bob is trying to extort money from Canada. Let's hope the PM has the courage to tell Bob where he can go.
Is Geldof the idiot who shaved his chest and eyebrows in The Wall?
The Prime Minister should walk up to that aging twerp and slap him so hard that Geldof drops to the floor. When he tries to stand again, slap him down again. Then apologise for losing his temper, start helping Geldof up, and slap him down yet again.

I've been fighting poverty all my life, my own poverty.
One really easy and sensible measure I have found is that if I just keep my legs together, I won't have children I can't support.
Does that count? Do I get any credit for that brainstorm?
