"There are men, in all ages, who mean to exercise power usefully; but who mean to exercise it. They mean to govern well; but they mean to govern. They promise to be kind masters; but they mean to be masters." Daniel Webster

Because They Are Russian?

Cathy Young asks why some Russians seem so concerned about the country's poor performance at the 2010 Winter Olympics.

Me? I want to know how they found room for every halfway famous Canadian during the closing ceremonies but Gordon Lightfoot was nowhere to be found. Come on? They had William Shatner and Michael J. Fox doing lame standup, but they didn't have the time for Gord to perform "The Canadian Railroad Trilogy"?
