France may kill me yet — through an overdose of irony
**Posted by Phineas I’m serious, you’d better have the paramedics ready; I’ll likely need them after reading this: Libya conflict: France eyes new UN resolution The French defence minister has suggested a new UN Security Council resolution may be needed for Nato allies to achieve their goals in Libya. Gerard Longuet was speaking after a [...]
Al Qaeda plotting to kill French First Lady?
Not surprising. The last thing the Religion of Misogyny can tolerate is a self-confident, independent woman who doesn’t dress like a shapeless lump: From Daily News and Analysis: Security services believe President Nicolas Sarkozy’s wife is now “high up” on al-Qaeda’s hitlist of potential VIP victims in France, it was revealed. Fears for Bruni’s safety [...]
Britain relies on France for its defence? What could go wrong?
Oh, how about a French aircraft carrier breaking down?

Photo-op faux pas: French govt gets caught pretending govt-friendly politicos were “regular people”
It’s the nightmare photo-op no government official wants to get caught in the middle of: PARIS — It was apparently just a little summertime spinning with the aid of a grocery chain, but Luc Chatel, the education minister and government spokesman, found himself in some hot water over a supposedly staged visit to a quiet [...]
Obama admin smooth as sandpaper with our European allies
And here I thought that since the era of “cowboy diplomacy” was over, Obama and Co. were going to razzle dazzle European leaders and “heal” strained relationships. That’s what he, his supporters, and the mainstream media were bragging about last year. Apparently (and unsurprisingly), they were wrong: DRESDEN, Germany — After mending fences with the [...]
Don’t blame Obama for Sarkozy’s petty jealousy
It’s hard for me to work up much if any anger over President Obama’s failure to visit the Normandy on his recent European trip. My first thought when I saw this headline: Barack Obama rejects Normandy trip to avoid offending Germany …was a hearty “WTF?” The President of the United States passed up touring one [...]
