I cant listen to Franco or Zapatero clips because I havent got the flashplayer thing.

The one from Aznar is fantastic though!!!

Franco reads the speach in spanish phonetic, with a "Viva E'paña!" at the end

Zapatero is asked in english something and he doesn't get a word, he undersetands zero and he says "Yo sólo hablo español" Then you see the journalist saying: "Bueno ya lo ven, no ha querido hablar en inglés pero por descontado entendía lo que le decían, o almenos esa impresión da

Ansar in yorchtaun is a classic

Fantastic find Sil, hilarious

(Although i think it would be just as funny to watch Blair, Major or Thatcher trying to give a speech in español )

It's quite embarrasing and worrying to think that they are our presidents and they represent the country around the world. With that english skills

Not just your presidents Sil Thank god for translators at the EU

......and trying to understand politicians speak clearly in spanish is so much easier than trying to understand some of the footballers, like iker casillas

It's called Ansar grego

It's easier to understand politicians cos they are supposed to speak more politely, while footballers really don't care to drop slang

YOu may find some files with Ansar speaking in spanish with a very stupid yank accent, altho he really sounded like Cantinflas.
