France goes conservative!

Discussion in 'Politics' started by Maverick74, May 6, 2007.

  1. Let me read it back to you in hope that it might get through your thick skull this time;

    His Mediterranean proposal also amounted to an effort to reach out to the Muslims of North Africa, many of whom are the immigrants who live in the troubled suburbs of major French cities where Sarkozy is unpopular. On immigration itself, he said that France and the Africans would work together to reach agreement.

    Having me saying that, I really do not have a problem with enforcing law and order for one major reason.

    You see dddooo the Zionist, the French people has a very strong and independent political history. They conduct their business based on what is in the interest of the populous. You are used to manipulating the United States for your own advantage and that of your zionist state. As much as I hate Sarkozy for his conservative social and economic stands. He is not a lackey to you. As a matter of fact, he is not a lackey to any one. You cannot threaten him of forcing him out of office by heavily funding his opponent.

  2. When you get on your socialist rant you remind me of.....an American Jew. You know what us Christian white folk say about what you get when you turn an Arab inside out....:p

    Jeez Wael, why don't you just move to the Upper West Side and nosh on blintzes while agreeing with the New York Times editorial page.

    That aside: You thoroughly get it. Not a "anti-Muslim" vote but an economic reform vote.

    Unions are no longer the utopian "workers rights" platform but rather more and more unions=government workers.

    In Europe (and increasingly here) it's a battle between beauracrats with their 75% pensions and benefits vs. taxpayers from the private sector who support the whole mess.

  3. He wants closer ties to the US. So much for how Bush has ruined our image in the world. Maybe the problem is not with the US, but with the people who hate us so much.

    The Left are profoundly undemocratic. They accept elections if they win. If they lose, they immediately start plotting to undermine the winner and, by extension, their own country. They virtually promised riots if they lost in France, and they delivered.

    Pabst what you wrote, people like Wael and spol, will never ever in millions years understand.

    Look at this:
    I've been reading the articles.

    This is bullish for the markets.

    Pro-American and Pro-globalization.

    France is on its way to become a third world country. The French can say goodbye to their living standard.


    What a retarded logic. Something which is good for a market is going to place France in third world category. Can it get actually dumber than that????
    These idiots will never give up their faith that more government means more justice, equality, protection of "poor" etc. Despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

  5. As if France's 8.3 percent jobless rate was something to write home about. So much for the socialist worker.

    You and I both know Cesko that creative economic thoughts from the Left could fill......a thimble. :)

  6. Unions are not only about 75% pensions. Unions do not represent the total opposition in France. What the union, labor movements, grassroots movements are confronting is the threat posed against the middle and low income Frenchmen and women.

    By the way, unlike the zionist dddooo who tried to score cheap points against me, I will not abandon my principals, like he does whenever the situation require him to do so, in an attempt to serve his interest and that of his fascist state.

    I will tell you this, I will live and die as a leftist. I will live and die caring for the underdog and the poor.

  7. if the left of France was united, you would've not had Sarkozy winning the election.

    Royals biggest mistake is that she failed to unite them. But then again...God will not be able to unite the left.

    Bottom line, the collective decision of the public is the one that will rule.

    Europeans are in the habit of trying everything. If Sarkozy wins the next election then he is the people's choice.

    Ask any European and he or she will tell you that the first election is a probation period.

  8. Well, not exactly:

    "Experts said Sarkozy was able to steal working-class votes from the left by playing up his tough cop image and by pounding away at the theme that he believes in rewarding hard work.

    "The main attraction among workers were the security-immigration duo, which works, and the values of hard work: He put the emphasis on increasing purchasing power," said Frederic Dabi, a pollster with Ifop."

  9. You're passion is decent. And cool. Even though I oft disagree with you I respect your zeal.....

    I'm as free market as they come though. Unfortunately much modern wealth isn't the product of Adam Smith but of robber-barons feeding at the public trough.

    As things move full circle you'll realize there is too a danger of the public sucking off the few who have the ability to create.
