OT: "Our" French president - isn't that nice? Just like Bush...

[europegirl4jfk]

... or even worse. He insulted a guy who didn't want to shake his hand by telling him: "Bug off, you jerk!"

Here's the YouTube video with english translation:

You guys are the lucky ones this time because it seems that you will get Obama in November. The French people have just elected this guy recently and have to deal with him for years to come. :puke:

[MBS]

1. Sarkozy really does seem to be a piece of work

nice to hear from you europegirl!I hope you are well (other than proximity to Sarkozy) :hi:

[europegirl4jfk]

5. Hi, MBS! I'm fine. Thanks for asking :-) n/t

:hi:

2. His personal life is odd, too. I mean, I understand divorce happens,

and that people move on from it. But right in the middle of a presidency, and a marriage happening within months of the divorce? I assume you saw that he blew off 60 Minutes right in the middle of the interview. He is quite odd.

6. This guy is psychotic

Being president is getting to his brain. And yes, I saw the 60 Minutes thing. He gets angry and has no discipline and no manners at all. It has happened a few times now. I never liked Chirac but now I almost wish he were back. *sigh*

[Mass]

7. Me too. I never would have thought that possible.

:scared:

[europegirl4jfk]

9. I'm so sorry, Mass :-(

People only realize their mistake once they have elected these guys. It can happen everywhere. Don't feel too bad. At least the US has a good chance to get a really great president in less than a year. And I'm convinced France won't re-elect Sarkozy (as I think the election can't be stolen here.)

3. For the Harry Potter fans among us...

Here's a *sort of* anti-Sarkozy (OK, only one direct reference, but it's anti-Sarkozy in spirit!) Potter video:

And here are the words:

Lyrics for "Voldemort Peace Off"

Voldemort is not good, not like Luna Lovegood
So bad, You Know Who, he could eat Winnie da Poo
He's got the emotional range of a glove
Coz he'll never understand love

(chorus)
Don't kill the Muggles
Don't kill the Mudbloods
Don't kill the Weasleys
Don't kill the babies
Don't kill the Aurors
Stay with your Dementors
And... Save the planet
(save the planet)

Voldemort is ugly, just like Sarkozy
The Dark Lord is evil, like an old rotten bagel.
His Deatheaters are just a bunch of losers (so ugly they hide their faces)
They couldn't find a better leader

(chorus)
Don't kill Oliver Wood
Don't kill Clint Eastwood
Don't kill Hermione
Don't kill Christophe Mae
Don't kill the communists
Stay with your Basilisk
And... Save the planet
(save the planet)


Vodemort lost his nose in a fight with Grindillows
He made f---ing Horcruxes, now his mind is in pieces.
He's so nasty he wants to kill sexy Harry
But the fangirls will stop this catastrophe

(chorus)
Don't kill Petunia
Don't kill my umbrella
Don't kill Trelawney
Don't kill Depp Depp Johnny
Don't kill Bob Morane
Stay in Azkaban
And... Save the planet
(save the planet)

Quand tu te brosses les dents, ferme les robinets
Jettes tes papiers dans les bonnes poubelles
Voldemort, faut que tu fasse le tri
Eteins les lumières quand tu sors de ta chambre
Voldemort, fais gaffe aux fosses septiques
Même si t'as la colique !
Ganja !

8. Hilarious!

I had to send it to Julie; she will love it. And I take Ralph Fiennes (the Voldemort actor) every day over Sarkozy. LOL

[Mass]

4. No, not Sarkozy here, please! I have never been as embarrassed to be French!

4 more years at least. Difficult to understand what people thought when they elected him (even without Carla Bruni in the balance).

And one more year without any president to be proud of. So, hopefully, 2008 will give me a president to my liking.

[wisteria]

10. I was just talking about his antics the other day. He is what I like to call a real piece of work.

The only good part is he is a conservative.

His new wife is "special" too.
