[Vast Buffalo Wing Conspiracy]

I'm trying to visualize a French "far right."

Why is it that when it comes to the French, so many Americans are so eager to publicize their ignorance? France has been split between a far left and far right since the French Revolution, at least.

I wonder if you could imagine that there are many people who don't spend their time studying French politics present or past? I am one of them. Can you handle that? Thanks goodness, though, we have a nice person like you to tell us about it.

Because it seems that the only thing one ever hears about the frence is socialist, whinning, or trying to bend the U.S. over. Many of us with our feet on the ground realize the french have an inferiority complex about belonging to a dieing culture. Far right french is what say a left of center Mass. liberal?

[SolitaryMan]

Considering the French government policies and their own rhetoric towards the US, it's hard to believe that they do have a right wing, or at least an effective one. Remember France's non-support for the strikes against Libya?

[Dales]

Well, you will have to pardon the confusion of some. It is hard to picture the great schism you portray when we see one of the supposed far right leaders saying "on economic policy, I'm on the left".

Damn, now I am in the mood for wings lol

Let me guess.
Is it because the little we know about the French...makes us not want to know anymore?

I'm am of French decent, but their national politics turn me off so much I ignore most things French as much as possible.

There is no "right" in French politics, at least with regard to economic conservatism. Theres the hard Nazis, the soft nazis (Le Pen), the Commie socialists, and the soft socialists. Thats it, pal.. (BTW, I miss those Buffalo wings, you cant get that special type of blue cheese anywhere else, can you?).
