As another country in Europe makes a sharp turn to the right, the Leftwing MSM is beside themselves.
They are hoping that Sarko will be just another Chirac, anti-Bush, anti-American. They love to love the people that hate us.
Champagne chilling in the fridge alert!
FReepMail me if you want to be on the FRENCH ELECTION PING LIST.
OMG! Not that!
Isn't it the truth..... Poland, Australia, Canada, and now France moving to the right....(following GWB lead)...but hardly a word by the MSM in regard to this perspective...
Just hope jimmy carter will be there,to make sure it’s fair;)
No it doesn't, Silly Editor. Harry Reid said Social Security was solvent for the foreseeable future and didn't need fixing.
Oh, man, let that DIE. "Freedom Fries" were a one-day (silly) stunt that is only talked about my silly leftists in this country who can't think of anything else to whine about.
The percentages of US voters quoted compared to those in France don't take into account so many things, like the diversity of our culture--I wonder why these lefties are always comparing apples to oranges, as if one country's population were comparable to another's just because.
I wonder why they don't do a voter breakdown by ethnicity, the way they do with everything else. Maybe the results would disprove some of their favorite fantasies.
A couple more hours until this election is finished. And then in a couple of days Chirac will get the boot, Sego will get the finger, and France with its new leader will get the thumbs up. Let’s hope that Sarkozy’s momentum carries through to the next set of elections in June.
WTH? The phrase “right-winger Nicholas Sarkozy” wasn’t used.
With Sarko is projected to win, the author doesn't dare to mention the parallel between Royal and Hillary.
BUMP!
That was awesome. Here in the US it is considered by way too many "vulgar" to talk politics among friends/neighbors. I think the liberals have fomented that poisonous mindset to keep the sheeple ignorant/unthinking, and easily led, by two minute MSM soundbites.
“and a mandatory 35-hour work week that the candidate rightly calls a catastrophe. ...”

You’re right: all leftist publications, but even they have to admit that France is now clearly now a disaster.
If I’m not mistaken, that ‘35hr’ silliness was to become “law” about 7-9 years ago. I remember being in endless discussion with people on the internet, probably some on FR, where we were naming that to be one of the most idiotic things that could ever be done.
That it would turn out to be catastrophic was easily foreseen as it was supposed to force employers to hire more people, as well as keep wages the same for less work. So very stupid. It took France and the liberal FRAUDcasters so long to realize how stupid... Meanwhile editorialists of Investor’s Daily, Wall Street Journal, and other conservative US business economists were absolutely right.
Do you think they’ll be listened to in the future?
