'Pants on the Ground' Used in Political Attack

The "Pants on the Ground" phenomenon has infiltrated the Canadian government -- where one member of the legislative assembly broke out in song to attack a member from a rival political party.

T.J.: Burke: Click to watch
It all went down Friday morning inside the New Brunswick Legislature -- when veteran politician T.J. Burke used "General" Larry Platt's theme song to explain how an opposition member had been caught with his "pants on the ground" during a recent radio interview.

Details aside -- it's just funny.

This is the best day of T.J. Burke's life. Is there any other way for a Canadian provincial legislator to get on TMZ? LOL I highly doubt it.

I'd be embarrassed to be Canadian after seeing that. Are all your Liberal politicians childish, attention seeking fools like this?

Too funny!
and "Canadian" maybe u should reconsider your name; Legislative Assembly equals provincial. He was talking to the leader of the official opposition of the prov. of NB.

Eh! Homer!
So you know we are not tucked away down there, where ever you think down there is! (get a map) So you know we (Canadians) are on top the world! Just so you know.
And yes we know our government has a bunch of idiots, like any government.
