    Wellp,
    nothing to do now but take note of whether France swirls clockwise or counter-clockwise down the drain.

    Espoir et Changement ?

    Only in France could the president be named Holland.

    Just wait until Argentina moves on the Falklands again, and Britain asks if they can borrow that one aircraft carrier they share with the French.

    Baxter,

    France will soon have to SELL their share of that carrier to pay bills. So may be Britain will get it cheap along with some slightly used Rafael fighters.

    As for their government, well it’s a nation of parasites so why not a parasite president. Soon all the French wealthy will either go Galt or move someplace else. Then France will just print funny money to pay everyone as they go Greek.

    Heartbreaking. The producers in France must be feeling like slaves. I’ve heard they’re fleeing the country.

    On the upside, if you can call it that, the socialists have been breaking it for generations now so they own it. When the mobs, fires, murders, genocide and other “cleansing” take place it will be on their hands in the history books.

    Liberty-loving, free-market loving, beauty-loving, Jesus-loving, Bastiat-loving French won’t get the blame for the bloodshed. (They’ll likely be the sacrificial lambs on the altar of socialism. …and that altar looks like a bullet-pockmarked wall.)

    This is “change” in name only. Ain’t nothin’.

    It will, however, be fun watching lefty pundits like Krugman make fools of themselves tomorrow. My guess is that before 9:00am Monday morning there will at least 1,000 attempts to spin this in favor of Obama.

    France is finished. Only question is whether they will drown in debt or Muslims first. Will they emulate Greece or Egypt?
    Sad. It’s such a beautiful country.

    No kidding. I’ve noticed that in a number of ways it’s slowly occurring to the Brits that they are going to have to go their own way or go down the drain with the rest of Europe.

    The question is whether it’s too late. It may take more political will, citizen support, and financial means than they have left. Guess pretty soon we’ll see.

    Satirical cartoonists have depicted Mr Hollande, 57, as a “Flanby”, a mass-produced creme caramel that wobbles comically when tipped from its plastic mould on to the plate.*

    He also had a “difficult childhood”

    Oh man. Hell is a braking looose.

  19. Posted May 7, 2012 at 1:23 am |

    Heck! I had a difficult childhood too! I mean, I had a childhood that would make most people’s childhoods look like, well, childhoods.

    Of course, I also [briefly] had a pony. I guess that that cancels all of the bad shit out… except for the quirt [which never got used] {on the pony}..

    Never mind.

    Ironic:

    No kidding. I’ve noticed that in a number of ways it’s slowly occurring to the Brits that they are going to have to go their own way or go down the drain with the rest of Europe.

    The savaging, a few days ago, of the Conservatives in local elections across the UK suggests that the British people, for the moment at least, do not quite agree with you.

    And as much as I’d like to celebrate Hollande’s victory, it is marred by the strong showing of Marine Le Pen in the first round. She hates Muslims, foreigners and the poor with a passion that would make a KisPer blush. In general, that’s been the recent pattern in Europe: fatigue with right-wing incumbents combined with a radicalisation of the Right, splitting the vote between the usual go-to conservative party and some far-right abomination like UKIP, FN, PVV, etc. It gives the Left the win, but many of the victories are unnatural and unsustainable.

    One would think Frau Merkel is not happy with this change of events either.

    Maybe Germany will go kick their asses. Yanno, third times a charm.

    BTW, ObamA++ has already invited “le socialist” to come see him next week.

    Obama invited Hollande for bilateral talks at the White House later this month ahead of a G8 leaders meeting he will host at his Camp David retreat in Maryland between May 18-19, and a NATO transatlantic alliance summit in Chicago on May 20-21.

    Hey Yarbouti, I’m going to give you a C-L-U-E here. The first one is free. It will cost you nothing except the pride that you might have had if you had ever grown-up to be A Man.

    We all know that you’re a hit-and-run coward. That is why you avoid engaging me, or anybody else with half-a-brain. You simply don’t have the horsepower. You’re the bitch of some faggot, who is the bitch of some other faggot, and probably had a mother who was the bitch of some other faggot, or possibly even a lesbian. You’re not fooling anybody.

    Expectantly awaiting your reply… pussy boy

    Mr Hollande has not been able to shed his true political character as a technocrat…

    After a life of quietly swallowing the insults, Mr Hollande’s childhood destiny has arrived.

    Ohmondeiu…

    Yarbouti:

    Re: UK: It’s not a big deal for incumbents to lose seats in a mid-term election. It does not indicate a lasting trend.

    I’m sorry Le Pen’s strong showing in the pre-elections have dampened your spirits. It lifted mine. But I see that you’ve compensated by leaving us KisPers a little present (much the same way our cat leaves presents) by saying that Le Pen “hates” “muslims, foreigners, and the poor”. Do you feel relieved?

    And name-dropping a few far-right groups is a weak polemic device. Who cares if there are a few nuts out there? Conservatism lives…. even in Europe.

    Parden my use of *technical words*. Regarding the European Union [which still doesn`t have a constitution...] , it is irresyphilis that Hollande replaces Sarkosy. Also, it is inveneral what the Gleek Plicks do, or the Krauts, Limeys, Spics, Itaiz, et al, etc., etc…….

    What is self-evident in Europe is the *Big Fucking Brick Wall* they have all arrived at! When all the money is gone, there ain`t no body to borrow the price for another ride on the “Fucking Ferris Wheel”

    No body, including this child, knows what is on the other side of that wall, but we likely will start to get a view in the next 3 or 4 years, give or take….

    Well, Shakespeare, he’s in the alley
    With his pointed shoes and his bells
    Speaking to some French girl
    Who says she knows me well
    And I would send a message
    To find out if she’s talked
    But the post office has been stolen
    And the mailbox is locked
    Oh, Mama, can this really be the end
    To be stuck inside of Mobile
    With the Memphis blues again

    Oh how I WISH you were correct but sadly the American supported funded IMF has become one of those entities that is “too big to fail”.

    But on the bright side we’ll be the last to go down the drain, followed by that final sucking sound.

    Yarbouti (20): I don’t think it was entirely a savaging, but if it has any meaning at all it would be to support the second part of my post… that I’m not sure (actually I really doubt) that the British public as a whole has the fortitude to make the sacrifices to step away climb back up from the brink. Although, they do have the results of the folly of their continental “partners” who are bit further down the road of consequences to encourage them. Be all that as it may, there is some increasing realization in Britain that Europe’s whirlpool is not a good place to be.

    Hog (22): That is why you avoid engaging me, or anybody else with half-a-brain. Eh, well Yarbouti did (sorta) engage me, so….[oh!]….well, never mind then. Perhaps I’ll return Yarbouti’s engagement ring unworn. Just in case.

    geezerette (24): How about we trade all of our socialists with France for all of their rich? As awesome an idea as I have heard in a while, especially as long as we can classify the Obamas as socialist instead of rich. I have heard though, that at least some of France’s rich are prone to orgies. An excellent trade, even so.

    A slight pause for contemplation: what if European countries suddenly decided that they were no longer going to tolerate the unending violence, ignorance, cost and social unrest of their newly acquired moslem population segments and, instead of going under, ejected them? Where would they go? What would they do? Just wondering….

    Footnote: no, I’m not sure what would happen to the remaining native populations which is low fertility, aging, ennui infected and self-absorbed either, although it is hard to imagine that they would be worse off.
