What the fuck is going on in France? As if the French haven’t pissed off enough people in their history...
Not only are they offending the Muslims (who they welcomed into their secular country) by banning the burkha in public places, they are now deporting Roma people (that’s the PC term for gypsies from Romania). Slight problem for Sarkozy the Tyrant though, they are European Union citizens.
Both Romania and France are part of the EU and citizens from their countries can go wherever the hell they like within the organisations’s borders. So these deportations are actually illegal and the EU parliament is coming to shit on Sarkozy’s head.
You know there’s a freak out coming because Viviane Reding, the EU justice commissioner went the classic route of comparing the Roma deportations to the removal of Jewish folks during the Holocaust. People only do this when they are KAK serious.
Sarkozy is just practicing easy politics though. His ratings are plummeting faster than Barack Obama’s and he is doing the equivalent of name changes in South Africa: noticeable political points with no real benefit to the country at large in the face of real problems.
For me, it’s always sad when religious freedom and people’s livelihoods are put aside for flagging political parties…

I've never liked Sarkozy, but now I like him a whole lot less. How rich is this: the man isn't even fully French; he was born in Budapest! His father is a Hungarian nobleman and his mother is half-Greek. I think he should watch out before the French decide to deport him back to his ancestral homeland.
I'm still disappointed that Ségolène Royal didn't win the election against him.
