Somebody has lot of explaining to do. Wonder if Craig will bring it up tomorrow.<BR/>Maybe she asked for translations to verify what they were saying about her, (that she understood)<BR/>And remember, all her photo ops are with liberals.<BR/>What if they find her quilty as charged. Would she really stay in a Mexican jail vs a cdn one.

No details, no investigations. Has one single reporter even gone down to Mexico to look around for the truth? Since that might take a few weeks, i guess not. It is so far more important to pick and choose the details and come to the conclusion that, it is, somehow, the fault of the Canadian Government. IE US, Canadians.
