Re: Sarko wins French election with 129% (none / 1)

Will the State be paying for my re-education?

Cause if they aren't, I'm in the streets man!

Give me re-education or give me dearth. I need fewer reliable statistics, a less reliable societal structure and, and...and free transportation to my re-education.

As the first sign that I am re-educated, I'm buying some stocks in the private transport industry and, oh yes...the prison industry so that we can be like that paragon of neo-liberalism, California!

Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.

I am not sure what you are thinking but California is clearly a Blue state.
I doubt that the politicians in California even think of neoliberalism.
Why not stop by Santa Barbara where we watch:

There is a little clip of it at the SB site-adult content.

You don't spend a lot of time in the Inland Empire or the Central Valley, do you?

Bush is a symptom, not the disease.

Maybe not, but do you spend time in SF and Santa Barbara?

I went to SF three times and to Santa Barbara 4 times in the 4 years I was in California.

I guess you would rather have a verbal abusive woman, no?

Re: Sarkozy wins nothing (none / 1)

Why would the majority of French voters choose a man that reinforces all of the worst stereotypes around the world about them?

Re: Sarkozy wins nothing (none / 1)

It's called reform.

You can buy it wholesale from the US, which holds the patent on it, but is generously willing to share, for only a small consideration.
