We must attack someone…anyone…right now. Preferably the French.

“Mr Sarkozy is pouring cold water on President Obama's efforts to recast American leadership on the world stage, depicting them as unoriginal, unsubstantial and overrated.”

"The American President's call 'to free the world of the menace of a nuclear nightmare' was hot air...It was rhetoric – not a speech on American security policy but an export model aimed at improving the image of the United States...Most of Mr Obama's proposals had already been made by the Bush administration..."

Sounds like President Sarkozy might be a Limbaugh listener.

When the French think you’re weak and meek, you have an image problem.
