| Extract of Sarkozy's victory speech. (JFM's translation) |
| 2007-05-07 |
| I want to make a rally call to those in the world who believe in tolerance, freedom, democracy and humanism, to all those who are persecuted by tyranniees and dictatorships. I want to tell to all children around the world, to all women martyred in the world, I want to tell them that the honor and the pride of France will to their sides. France will be at the side of the lybian nurses he means the bulgarian nurses in Lybia who are in jail since eight years ago, France will not abandon Ingrid Bethancourt raped by the FARC in Colombia, France will not abandon those women who are forced to wear the burka, France will not abandon those women who don't have freedom. That is the message of France, that is the identity of France, that is the history of France. |

| #6 Ms. Segolene left the idiot father of her children? Was that the reason he kept saying things to undermine her campaign? |

| #5 Gorb. Segolene has quietly separated of the head of Socicalist party after discovering he cheated ion her. She is now with Louis Dreyfus, former head of Renault. However he is positively ugly. Of course as I am a straight guy all guys are uuuuugly to me, but Dreyfus is still uglier than usual. I am sure you can save her from him. However thare in France we ave lots of girls who o are far prettier than Segolene and vote for Sarkozy. |

| #4 If the rest of the speech was like JFM's excerpt, and as prime minister Sarkozy backs words with deeds, we will indeed have a partner for changing the world. gorb, Ms Segolene lives with the head of the Socialist Party, who fathered all four of her children. Your odds for getting that date are pretty low. Sorry. Although given the cock up both she and he made of her campaign, with their contradictory messages, that partnership may not survive much longer. |

| #2 Oops, Ingrid Bethancourt has been not raped but rapTed by the FARC in Colombia several years ago and held by prisoner by them since then. |

| #1 I certainly hope the people spoke knowing what they said. If this is done right then there is hope for France yet, and if Segolene doesn't get voted back in then maybe I can get a date with her. And I heard that Sarkozy is going after the "thugs" responsible for the Car-B-Ques. There was lots of bitching and moaning about his attitude, but I'll bet that it was from the part of the population that is a breeding ground for these thugs, and that the people who are hoping it goes away are sitting home quietly hoping that the French government suddenly sprouts balls. I can't imagine anyone complaining about calling these a$$holes "thugs". Anybody who does should just go out and burn their car and then they have a right to complain. |
