Michaëlle Jean: The new Sarah Palin
They both have questionable taste in glasses, rule over frozen landmasses and like their meat raw, says the U.S. media
Gawker, Manhattan’s painfully misanthropic snark machine/blog, has crowned poor Michaëlle Jean the “Sarah Palin of Canada” after our governor general ate a seal’s heart on camera. Commenting on Jean’s questionable photo op, in which she gutted and tucked into the seal carcass as a show of solidarity for Inuit hunters, Gawker noted how Jean was similar to Alaska’s white trash princess in other ways: they have questionable taste in glasses, they rule over frozen landmasses, they like their meat raw and bloody.
