now i think i feel something close to what american people felt when
W.Bush was elected...and that's not what i can call a good mood :cry:


Yes, it seems like the same feeling and I'm sorry. It's frustration, disappointment,a bit of anger, and disbelief rolled into one.

It might not be so bad...the U.S.A. has been fucking up for this whole decade...but France is deeply troubled.

Even though he served under Chirac, it seems like Sarkozy understands the need for radical changes in France.

I am generally a leftist, but your other candidates seemed soft.

He's been tacking right, but I think he might be more compassionate than you realize. We shall see...

...at least when we get a new president, Franco-American relations will be improved...Sarkozy is apparently a big fan of America...go figure...

Well put. This guy is out to protect only one class.

Bouygues owns the TF1 television channel, which can be expected to act as Sarkozy's own version of the U.S. Republican Party's Fox News Channel. Lagardere's media group owns the Europe 1 radio network, Paris Match, several French regional newspapers, and is a major stakeholder in the French television network Canal+.

Sarkozy is known to censor any news reports that are unfavorable to him and pressure publishers and editors to fire wayward journalists. With much of the French media in his pocket, expect the Franco-Hungarian Sarkozy to institute a new era of Janos Kadarist-style censorship in his nation.
