...AA hates these guys and thinks they sold out the US because now we can't "be ourselves" and urinate on books or something.
Uh huh. Of course the French know how to handle the mission civilisatrice better.

Former French President Jacques Chirac and former Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin received an estimated $20 million in illegal cash from West African leaders, a lawyer who claimed to be the go-between said Monday.
Lawyer Robert Bourgi said he handed over suitcases filled with cash between 1995 and 2005, including $10 million from the leaders of Senegal, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Gabon and Republic of Congo for Chirac's 2002 presidential campaign.
Day at the office in Pepea.
allegations like these are a dime a dozen. Bougi's got nothing.
By corruption you mean unwillingness to walk in lockstep with US policy ?
No. Apparently you can't read.
Once again, what you got - when was he found guilty of corruption ? You didn't like his policy on iraq but that doesn't make him guilty of corruption (quite the opposite one might add).
Again, try reading. Then lay out your argument as to how suitcases flush with millions = not liking his policy in Iraq.
Go on. Use that Logik that would make a Hegel proud.
Pepe is to Cartesian logic what Lady Gaga is to Johann Sebastian Bach.
It's very simple. Ask yourself why you believe the allegation and you'll find it takes you right to iraq.
Ans: Chirac and Villepin showed themselves to be utterly corrupt then and they have not gotten punished for anything. Yet.
specifics ?
They had already agreed with W about the war and then pulled out, making a big fake moral issue out of it.
That is dishonest enough, isn't it?
No - they simply realized that the casus belli was built on horseshit and pulled.
Yeah sure. How could they do wrong? They're French!
Incidentally, the casus was there without the WMD, check the UN resolutions, and those two fruity concierges didn't know any more about the presence or absence of WMD than anyone else. They had bought the intelligence till it came time to actually do something and either chickened out totally or thought the payoff wasn't good enough. See how they're doing in Libya?
Villepin's puffed up moral pose at the UN is shameful and comical in the extreme; your delusions are entertaining though. Perhaps you're all into those guys because of Villepin's dreamy hair, but drop the moral pretenses; they're embarrassing in adult males.
and only found an audience in a very narrow slice of the north american public. The rest of the world stood with nosotros (ok, save for papua new guinea and the three midget nations that constituted the proud coalition of the billing).
Beginning got cut off?
BTW, this narrow slice of humanity seems to have a width that varies according to how true a believer you're talking to.
If you check HuffPo, you'll find a story in which Moqtada al Sadr all but begs the US to stay in. Narrow slice.
It seems to me that you just bought the line that your fruity concierges fed you.
Blind, chest-thumping, French nationalism is such a bore... Probably similar in Papua New Guinea.
