*** FRENCH POLITICS AND CULTURE PING LIST *** FREEPMAIL ME IF YOU WANT TO JOIN ***
Isn’t this what always happens when you betray your own conservative principles?
To be fair, Sarko has attempted to pull the French screaming and yelling out of a top heavy 19th century bureaucratic relic of a government. The French do not like change.
The winners: Martine Aubry leading the PS Socialist Party and allies with 55% to victory, but not the clean sweep she hoped for.
Nicolas Sarkozy and parties on the Right with 37%.
Jean-Marie le Pen, leader of the extreme far Right National Front, neo-fascist,anti-semitic, and extremely anti-American party. The FN got 17%.
So that is a total of 72% for the anti-American parties? Bring back ‘freedom fries’.
Come again? 55% + 37% + 17% = 109%
Did they vote in Chicago?
Sarko pushed his Carbon tax, fortunately it didn’t get passed. The French were in shock! A new tax!
Sarko pushed controls on downloading which was passed. Does he really think the French are idiots? Does he really think that any young person in France will ever vote for him again? What are they supposed to do? Watch French TV! LoL
Sarko is a 19th century bureaucratic relic.
Thanks Cincinna. And well put.
