A great, and accurate, line about the election of Sarkozy in France.

The president, yes, because he is a very stupid man.

 

So how's your "Voice of Liberals" talk show dreams going FenPhen? Made your million yet? Better still, got any sponsors yet? Any, um, Hannitized people who have, well, seen the light?

Thought not.

 

Legion Etrangere master-analyst Yawn offers informal dream-interpretation to Fenian_Bastard during a lull in the siege of Fort Zinderneuf. Incroyable!

 

I am shocked, SHOCKED to learn that Yawn has been wrong.

 

FenPhen, you didn't answer. About that talk show opportunity?

Certainly with the masses lapping up every morsel of your ilk, you've capitalized on it

Oh wait. You abhor capitalism.

Still waiting to have the government hand you the opportunity and the resources.

 

Kool-Aid's on p 147.

 

Sorry, Yawn. The mouth-breathing, lowest-common-denominator, ignorance-embracing spot on your talk-radio dial is already overbooked by the likes of Weiner Savage, Rush, Hannity, Ingraham, Malkin, Liddy...

You'll have to try harder to break into that illustrious field.

 

I thought we were boycotting France.

It's so hard to keep up.

 

Hey, at this point, the Bushies will take who they can get.

 

I just want to know if I have too keep ordering Freedom Dressing on my salads.

 

Bill Maher's take on French/American relations.

I know, if God had wanted us to learn from the Enlightenment, he wouldn't have given us Sean Hannity.

And I'm not saying France is better than America. Because I assume you've already figured that out by now. I don't want to be French, I just want to take what's best from the French. Stealing, for your own self-interest -- Republicans should love this idea. Taking what's best from the French: You know who else did that? The Founding Fathers. Hate to sink your toy boat, Fox News, but the Founding Fathers, the ones you say you revere, were children of the French Enlightenment, and fans of it, and they turned it into a musical called the Constitution of the United States. And they did a helluva job, so good it has been said that it was written by geniuses so it could be run by idiots. But the current administration is putting that to the test. The Founding Fathers were erudite, well-read, European-thinking aristocrats -- they would have had nothing in common with, and no use for, an ill-read xenophobic bumpkin like George W. Bush.

 

I can't keep from laughing at the knuckledraggers' delight in the French election.

From an ideological standpoint, Sarkozy defeating Royal is like . . .

. . . Kerry defeating Kucinich.

And then the neocons celebraring because Kerry is the president. Better than Kucinich, I suppose, but exactly what are you celebrating?

The socialists didn't lose power in France . . . they've lost three consecutive elections. They never were in power.

France didn't do a 180 with this election. They did about a 10.
