I hate to write about the same subject again, but frankly - I think it’s worth a little more attentions.
Recently, the French decided to adapt the “Yes We Can” Obama campaign motto.
I find it ironic that despite the years of hatred for Bush, their distaste for general American lifestyle, and their seemingly more progressive perception of who could be in high office (no problems with Chirac’s mistress, current Prez marrying a model/musician while in office) the French are , dare I say, trying to immitate the classless Americans?
”We shouldn’t be surprised that Obama’s popularity is so high here: It testifies to the aspirations of all the children of France who are experiencing by proxy a recognition that France does not give them,” the manifesto reads. “It also betrays the bad faith of those who welcome the victory of modernity outside our borders, in order to tolerate the status quo here.”
