#4 "(We) do not understand how President Jacques Chirac and the government proclaim grand ambitions for France even as..."

Uh, guys, that would be because Chirac is just woofing. Glad I could clear that up for you. Call if you see any new aircraft carriers coming off the ways.

#7 Funny : Some of the protesters's complaints are about Jacques Chirac's wife Bernadette spending an *awful* lot of money to stay in a roman luxury hotel, along with 50 followers, when she came to the Vatican for the Pope's anniversary, instead of going to one of the four palaces France possesses in the area. Her husband is also famous for living over-expensively when abroad, all this on credits from the ministry.
Jacques has a problem with money, you understand...
