Teribus - Those were interesting and reasonable comments on your part in that last post. I might be called apolitical too, because there's no political party out there that I have any faith in anymore. I'm disgusted with both the "Right" and the "Left"...and not much impressed by "the center" (if there is one).

I didn't much care for Margaret Thatcher, but I do agree that she provided genuine leadership, no question about that...and that Obama does not do so. In the case of Canada, Pierre Trudeau certainly provided genuine leadership. That doesn't necessarily mean one had to like the way he governed.
