John Key on Letterman

[James Deuce]

Haha! That was totally wicked!

"Visit in the next 30 days, and I'll pick you up."

Genius.

johns the man. best thing to happen to new zealand politics since ages ago.

i think he did well. id love to see some of you bashers trying to deliver the lines in front of millions of people. most of you big tough internet heros would piss your pants.

[MisterD]

Looked like even more of a tit that he usually does...I guess that's an achievement of some sort

Do you realise that an ability to not be a narcissistic tw@t, full to overflowing with your own arrogant self-importance and to laugh at yourself occasionally actually makes people like you a little bit...hah! What am I saying?

[Coldrider]

I suspect that New Zealand is the only country in the world where students come out of University with a regional accent.

Helen Clark has an even worse speaking accent.

Regardless of political view: Foreigners are able to understand what Phil Gough says when he speaks.

Yes I have heard phil goff entering a house bar is the fastest way of clearing it out, it's on KB somewhere so must be true.

Nah snot true, he's got so little personality that people don't actually realise he's there...

[cs363]

I liked it.

He just seems like hes a down to earth, happy fellow willing to muck around.

Instead of an up tight, over pc, sand in there vagina's cock heads like im starting to see everywhere.

Ditto, how much does 5 minutes of advertising on that show cost, that JK just got the country for free? Not a sheep joke in site either.

I always thought he was "good value"...

I agree - too many of you see the glass as 'half empty' far too often.



But then you ARE Kiwi born....

Agreed, light hearted fun and any raising awareness of NZ has to be good.
Key seems to have the ability to have a genuine laugh and has the ability to laugh at himself as well. Life is too short to take everything that seriously, lighten up people.

[Dafe]

Great job John Key.

It's nice to see a genuine down to earth kiwi at the helm.
As for NZ being in the top 5/6 destinations in the world, I believe the countries magnificent scenery and greenery sells itself. Guys like Peter Jackson are also having a significant impact on those ratings, more so than the government of the day.

[NDORFN]

That was fucken awesome. I was expecting a cringefest and instead I got a warm fuzzy Who cares about promoting NZ as a tourism destination, it sells itself. What Key did was better, he earned us some street-cred. Champion.

[ynot slow]

And at last yanks now know we have a man as PM,certainly takes the guess work from our last PM.

Translation: Making a cock of yourself gets you laughed at (by Americans to make matters worse)


My only response was a slight grimace and a mild cringe

That's ironic.

No doubt you were in stitches - the highlight of your day was it?

no.....the highlight of my day was of course reading your posts, then I done some grimacing and a cringe or two.
