Vive La France, Sort of

by Saber Point: "Nicolas Sarkozy has won the Presidency of France with 53% of the vote. He defeated a Socialist, Segolene Royal. For the Socialists, it was a Royal defeat (sorry, couldn't resist). Sarkozy is said to be pro USA and a conservative. However, his first comments to the United States included the remark that we should not back away from Global Warming. Since man-made Global Warming is nothing more than a scheme to redistribute wealth from the US to less developed countries, this is not a good sign.

However, any defeat of a Socialist, anywhere, is far better than the other way around. How anyone can still believe in this foul ideology is beyond me, an ideology that impoverishes everyone, refuses to resist tyranny and sinks a nation into an awful, gray mediocrity where economic opportunity all but disappears. But anyway, Sarkozy is a step in the right direction (namely, to the right) and I applaud the French for their decision. Vive La France! How I would love to see that once great civilization resume its rightful place among the nations of the West." [Saber Point is linked on the ARRA News Service]
