He looks like a young Mr. Potato Head with a protruding organ that is pointy! I wonder if he uses nasal spay or a netti pod?

{quote} Apparently the turnout was 75.3%, the lowest since 1969, meaning that 11.4 million of the 47 million who were registered to vote chose not to. 3 million handed in a blank ballot and another million spoiled their ballot, all records for France. I see a lot of trouble brewing!
That is a pathetic!

The French have once again provided how to resist nuttery.

Viva La France!

btw Jen, since this is obviously a winger thread and I am obviously liberal, thank you for not censoring free speech....so far.

{quote} Eughh... I thought you were talking about Macron till I clicked on the link. I guess the French get too much out of the EU. Much of our EU contribution goes to subsidising French farming, including vineyards. They like their high quality food and wine too much. What they don't realise is the subsidies they so enjoy, won't be so generous soon without muggins UK coughing up. Well, the French have always surrendered to the Germans....
This is false. The French were overrun by the Germans, they never surrendered.

I made a pledge to you a while ago that I don't censor free speech. Why should I? I'm not a lib so have valid arguments instead.

From what I understand, if every vote counted in your election, then you would have resisted nuttery too. Then that just leaves us as the true psychos. So be afraid, ha!

The French will be overrun by the Germans again, then expect the Brits and the Yanks to bail them out, again. History has funny habits of repeating itself.

... The French were overrun by the Germans, they never surrendered.
They Germans did invade, but when the French ran out of resources ... and the Brits had been pushed back across the channel by then .... the French government (Vichy) capitulated and adopted a collaborative approach. That saved quite a lot of French lives and in any case I think the Vichy government believed that the Germans would win.

Luckily for us Hitler was asinine in some respects. If he had finished the job by pushing west before becoming distracted in Russia there would have been no launchpad for the Allied attack that began in 1944. It was only the smart move by the British to bomb civilians in Germany that distracted the Germans from their #1 goal which was to mulch the RAF. In this they nearly succeeded, but because the Germans stopped doing that in order to retaliate by blitzing English cities they never defeated the RAF, and therefore could not guarantee air superiority for any invasion of Britain from France. ...whew!

Sadly, it's true. The Electoral College in the USA is a product of our original sin of slavery. It is still coming back to bite us to this day. I am not sure if Germany will smother the French economically, but this election result was clear rebuttal to Brexit I think.

My thinking is that right wing governments have been surging. Brexit over there and Trump over here was the climax bar in this trend so to speak. If LePen had been elected, the EU is over I would think, so the French voted to retain the Union. Mind you, I am a Yank, and don't know the details over there.

There was nothing right wing about Brexit, the UK has a preference for democracy, you know, the kind where politicians can be hired and fired by the electorate based on their performance. Le Pen was perceived as too right wing and was rejected, but that does not translate into a vote of confidence for the EU. Simply a crap choice of candidates. The anti EU feeling is growing throughout Europe and by the time of the next French and Dutch elections, it will be at fever pitch

I can understand that. The idea of having overlords in Brussels would repel every American.

2 UK men goes to Donbass, Ukraine to fight. One fights for the rebels the other goes to fight for the Ukrainian illegal corrupt government. Look how differently they are portrayed by the mainstream media.

Please correct me on this if I am wrong... it is my understanding that if you were in our position being governed by Brussels, you would have a hell of a lot harder time getting out because of your Constitution. A referendum result of 52/48 definitely would not do it. So, if it was you, you would be stuck with Merkel, the drunkard Juncker and the rest of that unelected, power crazed lot. We are counting our blessings!
