LAUGHING.

10 reasons why Helen Clark should be Pope.

(courtesy of Big News)
1. She passionately believes in the Holy Trinity: Helen Clark, Heather Simpson and Judith Tizard.
2. Celibacy won't be an issue.
3. She knows the last pontiff's distant relative, David Benson-Pope.
4. Judith Tizard looks better covered up in a nun's habit.
5. She wouldn't have to travel so far to her favourite ski fields in the Swiss Alps.
6. Her office is just like a bishopric, even though there are no bishops in it.
7. Her ability to survive in the polls despite having Brian Edwards as her media advisor proves she's capable of miracles.
8. At least we'd know the altar boys would be safe.
9. Everyone knows the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel would look better with her signature on it.
10. She offered to turn wine into water at Peck's farewell and water into wine during Tamihere's working lunches.

Yold you you could get all sorts of good places by following Hard News.

#9 is good. I read about that little fiasco... "too busy" to paint so got someone else to do it and put her signature on it. For some charity auction. People found out and the painting becomes worthless and the buyer is pissed ;)

She also can survive mechanical failure on planes and is apparently a speed-demon. Oh sure she didn't know that her caravan was speeding madly to the sports venue......

*laughing* I can't believe you've heard of the Dramatic Paintergate Issue. Actually I can't believe you're actually reading up on Helen. *so amused*

That's why we call her Queen Helen... Supreme Ruler. :p

(not really, though. She rules Labour with an iron fist, forget the velvet, but she's not so bad.)

Don't forget Helengrad, because after all she is quite an authoritarian left winger.
