One of my rather odd passions in lifespeaks volumes of the contradictions I live by. I hate politics and the petty nature it brings out in people. We act immature and often make selfish choices in the process of supporting or devouring candidates. But it fascinates me to a perverse manner. In fact, I enjoy foreign wonk porn. Take the current election in France.
In this fantastic article from the Telelgraph in UK, you read on the comparisons I have been having political eros-based thoughts of lately. You have on one side, Sarkozy. He is pro-American and a free marketer in comparison to most of France. He wishes to see France start to lurch forward to become relevant once again than a stale irrelavant nation it is. My favorite idea he has to encourage a work ethic"

make the earnings for work done in excess of the 35 hours free of taxes both for the employee and the employer, is indicative of the hand grenade he intends to throw into the dormant French economy.
On the flip side is Royal with cheese. Sorry, had to get a little Pulp Fiction in there. She is the Socialist who wishes to continue taxing the hell out of the rich to ensure a happy tax base.
Business has had enough of bankrolling bureaucracy and funding feather-bedding. Well-known French individuals, such as the popular singer and actor Johnny Hallyday, have sundered their ties with the country and gone to live abroad because of the penal wealth tax, which led to Hallyday complaining that he now has to send two thirds of his annual income to the French treasury.
Sarkozy is leading in the polls and hopefully will come ahead. Remember those riots caused by unemployed youth? French labor laws make it very difficult to fire anyone thus keeping young people from entering an already dead economy, thus they get bitter and delusional. You add in radicals and Islamofacsits to capitalize on the anger to add petro to the fire. Viola! Utter chaos and a reduction in the bleu cheese I need to dip my chicken wings in. But I'll always take Brother Mondavi's fine wine over the French water.
And if Sarkovy wins
Some on the Left positively want a violent and extra-parliamentary confrontation with Mr Sarkozy. A group of socialist intellectuals wrote in Liberation earlier this week of the impending civil war if he is elected tomorrow.
Sounds a little familiar from the sore loser immature wingnuts in on our soil like the little brats known as rage against the machine,
According to NBC, during their performance lead singer Zach de la Rocha compared Bush administration officials to Nazi war criminals.
He went on to say the current admin team should also be "tried and hung and shot", the news site reports.
If they only knew what repression really was they little brown-eyes.
A little extra from the Socialist Gore sounding wench Royal:
On Friday, Royal told RTL radio that "choosing Nicolas Sarkozy would be a dangerous choice," acknowledging that she was breaking a taboo by raising the prospect of violence.
