French foreign policy in the EE - a real change or an illusion ?

[Tristuskhan]

Even so experienced polit... I have just realised we had equally experienced politician in power only 8 months ago his 'experince' translated into obsessions, rudeness and nedless quarells...


Divide and rule is something Sarko understands well. And France is an easy -to -divide place. Atavism.

So it is only boredom the result of this time ? Is there apathy or anger too ?

Maybe others could answer your question better than I do since I live in a quite remote place and do not know what it is to feels in my flesh Sarkozy's daily effects, especially the omnipresent police in those the urban areas I avoid so much.


I wonder, though who could possibly gain from such feeling in France ? Any candidates ?


Bayrou? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayrou The only name that comes to my mind, even if he is not from my political chapel. Once he gets rid of his "there is too much State" stance (that dogma is a bore for us french) he could be the one. But he has almost no corporate backing (Sarkozy spends his spare time buying Bayrou's former followers). Buying, as I tell you.
Apart of him i see few proper candidates: Besançenot http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Besancenot is a fair man leading an unfair party, unable to rule an united "true" left by itself despite the strong potential of this left wing (25%?).

Corinne Lepage
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corinne_Lepage she's the best and as a consequence does not play an active rule.

And don't forget this old one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Marie_Le_Pen because Sarkozy (despite his claims) has not killed this filthy character


I would better not.

'Never underestimate stupidity' even if it is suicidal one.


Sit down, have a beer and watch the show!

Still I must say I had some expectations about the new French government... at least in theory I shuld give them some time...

Time HE spends visiting dictators or resting on his friend's yachts.


Now everything I say can be described as "severely biased" as I'm some kind of left-leaner.
