"Sarkozy talks right but rules left. Portrayals of him as a French Thatcher who will shake things up are vastly exaggerated," said one EU official in reference to the former British prime minister Margaret Thatcher. "He is, after all, French."
"Sarkozy parle à droite, mais gouverne à gauche. Le représenter comme un Thatcher français qui va remuer les choses est largement exagéré," à déclaré un officiel de l'Union Européenne en référence à l'ancien Premier Ministre britannique Margaret Thatcher. "Il est, après tout, français."
I am rebuilding the site from the ground up.
As of December 02, 2020, only basic blogging is implemented.
Features that were previously available—and a bunch of new ones—are still under (re)construction, and will be deployed gradually as soon as they are ready. That includes the site-wide search engine, the blogroll, membership registration and, well, more...
Yes, thank you for your patience.
Note that some of the legacy content (anything I published before the current redesign) may not display as expected—this will be addressed in the future.

We were overly optimistic—slightly annoying American trait—when we first heard of Sarkozy, when we should have reminded ourselves, “He is, after all, French.” ~ But this doesn’t explain you, Frogman. There must be some evidence of other intelligent, witty, honorable Frenchmen out there. Yes? Hello? Anyone? Descendants of “Forces Françaises Libres” maybe?

I was luke warm on Sark to begin with. He is after all a Socialist, even if slightly right of Lenin. His proposed reforms sound good, then you skim below the surface and see no meat, all gravy. The business/labor situation is a cancer that is eating into most of Europe, and the appeasement of Islamic groups clamoring for Shar’ia is an accelorating problem that had best be quashed.
I do not see that happening with current gaggle politicians in EU, and especially France.
