Hooray for Sarkozy
At last a Frenchman I can admire.
Rather than taking part in the display of extreme bad manners that is the trademark of CBS news, French President Nicolas Sarkozy took the high road and left an interview when CBS reporter Leslie Stahl demonstrated her lack of tact during an interview in which she asked inappropriate questions about Sarkozys personal life.
It is a strange world indeed when the French have just cause to be offended by the rude behavior of another nationality but it seems American journalist have made such a reality.
Is it any wonder that everyday more and more people turn to blog authors and independent sources for their information?
Liberte, egalite, fraternite; Vive Sarkozy!

I saw that interview and LOVED the expression on Leslie Stahl’s face as he left her sitting there wondering what she was going to do next. I’ll bet she thought “doesn’t he know who I am” “doesn’t he know that the news media can make or break him, why the nerve of him”.
Absolutely loved it and I like to see lots more of it in the USA.

I’m with you, Mike.
The most hilarious part is the mainstream media trying (and miserably failing) to spin it to look like Sarkozy did something wrong!
