Sarkozy Holidays In Egypt With New Girlfriend

AP:

French President Nicolas Sarkozy and his model-turned-singer girlfriend, Carla Bruni, arrived holding hands in Luxor Tuesday, kicking off a private visit to Egypt.

Heavy security prevented media from approaching Sarkozy's entourage at the airport and the couple was whisked off in a convoy of Egyptian presidential security cars to Luxor's famed Old Winter Palace hotel on the east bank of the Nile.

He is the typical conservative hypocrite.

He doesn't support marriage equality for gay people in France because it would threaten the institution and defile the sanctity of marriage yet he is multipy divorced and is openly jetting around the world with his latest lover WHILE he is STILL married to his current wife. They are not divorced yet!

I have no issue with him doing his thing but I do have an issue with him being self-righteously judgmental of my relationship with unfounded accusations while at the same time not playing by the "rules" from which his judgments come.

That goes for Sarkozy and ANYONE else who has a "do as I say, not as I do" code of living.

I like this guy more and more.

Did you hear about the French politician???

He kisses babies BEFORE they are born.

Unlike Sarkozy's rightwing shithead friend Bush, Sarkozy has good taste and chooses real HOT women, (not American ones).

GOPiggies favor men and boys or StepfordWife types.

[WARisEVIL]

Well, one thing good about Sarkozy, he at least chooses real women instead of plastic Stepford wife types.

I don't understand why some posters, whom I usually respect because they're smart and educated, hate Sarko so much.

Of course a majority of frenchs like Sarko ! How could we not ?

Sarko had a law voted by parliament last October that forbids the teaching of creationism, determinism, finalism, and that makes compulsory the teaching of evolution, with its scientific true basis (pure chance in the apparition of new genes).

Sarko had laws voted to allow people who want to work more than 35 hours per week. Those who need money can work extra hours that aren't taxed. Those who want free time can stick to the 35 hours.

Sarko wants france and europe to go further than the kyoto protocol.

Sarko is going to pantheonize (= bring the remains of a famous french from a regular cimetary to a monument) La Fayette after the new American president is elected, so as to organize a reconciliation between Europe and America on the ideas symbolized by the revolution.

I don't see what's wrong with all that.

He can share notes on the security of his mistresses­/companion­s with Rudy Guiliani.

Bruni has "dated" the likes of Jagger,etc?
Is that the new PC term for boink?

[dryfactoidobotanoid]

he's trying to out-Putin Putin with the whole James Bond nemesis look.

[RogerHWerner]

It will be interesting to see if Sarkozy ends up feeling the brunt of French electorate distaste. Certainly, dating Bruni will have nothing to do with how they feel since the French are rather less puritanical in their views about behavior. My guess is that Sarkozy will end up being viewed as an egotistical out of touch politician and I don't believe French society will be prepared to accept his free market solutions. We shall see.

He may have fascist tendencies. But he has great taste in babes. Maybe Bloomberg should take lessons from him especially when he finally decides to run as an Independent in '08 and buy the Presidency.
