French dwarf and Italian tart add to the gaiety of nations

An exceedingly tough man I knew in my army days, and who subsequently died of wounds received whilst fighting with the SAS, once told me that in a bar fight always to be careful of the little guy.  Because they were small and at a disadvantage they would resort to ferocious tactics if cornered.  The ridiculous but dangerous President Sarkozy proves the point, I suppose.  Faced with an upcoming election he chose to flex his puny muscles by railroading out of France thousands of gypsies, or 'Roma', as romantic, soppy Leftists prefer to call them.  I have no particular views on gypsies, or 'travelers', or 'pikies', or whatever you wish to call them, except that I wouldn't want a bunch of them living within 10 miles of where I live and if they are, indeed, illegal immigrants then they should not be surprised or upset if they are sent packing.  I suppose I would also add that they, themselves, can be in no doubt of their well-earned reputation for living in filth and relying enormously on their ability to thieve for an income which brings down on their heads the hostility of all who surround them.  The way out of their predicament is simple, clean up, live right, get jobs and pay taxes like eveyone else.  None of that, before the soppies come on to tell me I'm a fascist, excuses anyone from treating gypsies differently under the law.  However, it is the cowardice of those in authority who actually make exceptions of the law when it comes to gypsies who increase the wrath aimed at them.

Anyway, the pint-size president (should be litre-size but I like the alliteration) decided to make a song and a dance over the expulsion of some gypsies, which anyway had been going on quietly for months before, not for any reasons of good governence but simply to get some cheap headlines to help in the election.  He received rather more than he expected when some hysterical female in the European 'Reichs Chancelry' accused him of acting like the Vichy French in WWII - perish the thought!  Happily for us spectators this happened just before a meeting of European Grand Panjandrums and little Sarkozy let go with a hissy-fit of, er, well, French proportions.  He tried to bind Frau Merkel in with his snapping, snarling attack on the Eurocrats only to find her retreating fast behind her side of the Maginot Line leaving him alone on the field.  Now, I gather, the Eurocrats are intent on revenge and will press charges against the French government and impose a whopping great fine.  That should shake up some of the wooly-headed pro-Europeans in France and elsewhere who still haven't realised what they have blindly stumbled into.

"Calm down, mon cher, it's only what you call 'le spat Francaise'!"

"Maybe, but it smells!" 

Meanwhile, 'Mde. Dwarf', has been has been doing the second best thing she is really good at by opening her big Italian gob and being indescreet.  In her latest book, about as reliable as the one Blair excreted a fortnight ago, I would guess, she tells the world that Michelle Obama hates the White house and thinks being First Lady is hell!   Oh dear, red faces all round, er, well, not Michelle's, of course, because she's ... oh never mind!  Anyway, everyone rushed around saying, 'no, no, it's all a misunderstanding, she's Italian, you know', but I believe it, and oddly enough, if it is true, then my admiration for Mrs. Obama moves up a millimetre from the -10 at which it stands today because I would think living in the White House and being First Lady is hell.

Still, a tad embarrassing for all concerned, except Carla, of course, who will sell a few more copies of her waste-site infill material.  This photo says it all:

Michelle (to Secret Service agent through hidden mic): "That's where I want her shot!"

The EU will impose a fine on France?

And you think they will pay it? Why would you think that?

As an aside, is British beef on sale anywhere in France these days?

As another aside, in you photo above, is it just me or does Sarko look a whole lot like Peter Sellers? "I 'ave come to mend your pheuene..."

"And you think they will pay it?"

The thought never crossed my mind, Andrew, even for a nano-second!

Not sure about British beef but I agree on the Sellars-lookalike bit. "pheuene" - love it!
