It's hard not dispare, given all gloom and doom painted on Liberal controlled American network and public television. Thank God for the alternative news sources.
Sarkozy give us hope that there is more sanity (people with conservative ideals) outside the 51% percent of level headed U.S. citizens.
I am willing to bet this grand achievement of Sarkozy's will be the first in line of many. So Reagan like, as if President Regan spoke from the grave, "There you go again."
"Well I'm sorry you feel that way Mr. union boss but I'm the President and if you don't like it, we'll get someone else to do the job." Good Work Sarko!!! Keep it up!!!
