Michael Ignatieff reminds me of Sir Galahad in Monty Python’s Holy Grail when he gets to the Bridge of Death.
Bridgekeeper: Stop. Who would cross the Bridge of Death must answer me these questions three, ere the other side he see.
Sir Michael of Ignatieff: Ask me the questions, bridgekeeper. I am not afraid.
Bridgekeeper: What… is your name?
Sir Michael of Ignatieff: My name is Sir Michael of Ignatieff.
Bridgekeeper: What… is your quest?
Sir Michael of Ignatieff: To become Prime Minister of Canada.
Bridgekeeper: Would you create a coalition with socialists and separatists?
Sir Michael of Ignatieff: Yes…err No!!!
