More Liberal Hypocrisy
|
(From James Taranto at WSJ Opinion Journal.com)
ESPN reports that the French don't seem to have much of a sense of humor:
And after she won the NASDAQ-100 Open in April, Serena Williams—the reigning French Open champion—smiled mischievously, mustered a cartoonish French accent and said, "We want to make clothes. We don't want the war." The backlash in France was immediate. A number of Paris boutiques removed clothing endorsed by Williams and a French firm canceled plans to design blouses with her.
Now, if the French don't want to do business with Serena, that's their business. But where are all the folks who were wetting their beds a few weeks ago over an "assault on democracy" because some people were boycotting the Dixie Chicks for being anti-American?
