That love fest didn't last long.  President Sarkozy is talking trash of President Obama now.

Apparently he is annoyed by the rock star persona and what he sees as the naivety and the herd mentality of the media, among other things.

Jealous little man.

Ah the French.  What can you do.  They've been casting themselves as the Eurostyle alternative to American hegemony for decades. 

Of course, they're still our allies. Prickly though they may be.

As long as you don't fix the allies part, I'm fine with it.  Because really, surrender monkeys or not, they are.

The luster is still on, apparently to one person Obama really is the messiah.



Just yesterday at mass the priest was talking about how Jesus was all about supporting abortion rights, coveting the wealth of others, hanging around tax cheats, and oh, lying.

Another day, another ethics waiver for an Obama appointee:

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/may/12/treasury-nominee-can-keep-corporate-buyout/

He gets to keep his deferred pay from his prior employer which stands to profit from the work he will do for the government. Oh, and that whole Dick Cheney taking deferred payments from KBR (evil Haliburton)...crickets.

I think he is learning that you can't find experienced people willing to work at the highest levels of government who qualify as squeaky clean.   Sad truth I suppose.

Per the Haliburton thing, did Obama ever talk about that or just 'people' in general?  I agree there is a double standard on many levels (Bush gaffs made Leno nightly), but it is not necessarily a slight on Obama.

I don't know, I was just slapping those tinfoil hat wearers/hypocrites around a bit. Incidentally, it looks as if Murtha has picked up on those evil "no bid" contracts that was all the outrage during the Boosh administration:

Strange we are not hearing about those no-bidders from the lefty crowd here.

Let me be the first to make you feel just a squidge better about us tinfoil hat hypocrites:   it was wrong when Bush/Cheney did it, it's wrong when Murtha does it. 

There, all better.

It's wrong? Whoa, dial down that outrage. You are beginning to sound like those folks that were all over Cheney for 8 years.

You & fox news have far surpassed the left's criticism of Bush.

If you don't believe me, find me a new article about Bush's choice of mustard.

Boy ain't that the truth.  The Obama Derangement Syndrome is running full tilt, isn't it?

guido911

Don't really know how to take this "story", other than its pretty damn funny--both the "message" Harrison is sending or how the reporters reacted at his apparent audacity in refusing to meet the prez:

More Obama Derangement Syndrome on display by this plainly racist hack.
