I've read that Napoleon's pursuit of glory led to the death of one million Europeans. Fitting that this fool celebrates him.

Now this may be un Legend Urbain, but it has been said that Napoleon reduced the stature of the French male by two inches.

(I originally wrote "shortened the French male," but realized that that was ambiguous ~<]B^)

Napoleon first great defeat was at the hands of Spanish peasants.

How much more arrogant and hypocritical can the French president get? To threaten the Eastern Europeans by denying them entrance to the European Union because of their support for the United States denotes the delirious mind of an old decrepit leader with Napoleonic dreams who lives disassociated with reality. Doesn’t president Chirac forget that once, during the occupation of Spain by Napoleon Bonaparte, the French soldiers taken prisoner after being defeated by the Spaniards were exchanged for « petit couchons ”?
