Hmm, where have I heard something similar?  I wonder how it worked for them...


Please no references to nazism - that's ridiculous.

Says the guy with the statue symbolizing the Nazi party in his avatar.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

PS: Crazy Ivan did not mention the one thing that unites Le Pen and Mélenchon: their love of Putin.  :D

I wagered the forum either already knew or could infer their Putin-sucking-attitude. anti-eu usually equals sucking Putin's cock.

So it will be Macron vs Le Pen in the second round.

That should be good for Macron. But then again, Trump was supposed to be the best candidate for Clinton.

Some people were predicting Melenchon vs Le Pen. Wouldn't that be a hoot?

And now the predictable roundabout from every defeated party to call for a Republican Front to vote against Le Pen, just like in 2002.

:yeah:
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

:yeah:

At least Chirac was immensely experienced - and Jean-Marie Le Pen was loathsome.

Little Manu is not even 40 years old, has not even been elected once, is as much part of the 'system' as the others, and is 'Mouvement EM' has not even a MNA. And Marine is not her father, she has successfully broadened her support to make FN 'palatable'.

What I am afraid is that all these calls to vote Macron on the 2nd Turn will backfire - because they have all seen it before, and because those who call for it are all, themselves, from the Establishment. This election puts in the light how much fed up the electors are with all this.

It's a shame France won't actually elect Le Pen in the run off, she is the only chance France doesn't devolve into a Sheikdom. I don't pretend that her Presidency would be pleasant or enjoyable for many, but neither is cauterizing a wound, but it is sometimes necessary.

I couldn't agree more.  It appears a majority of French are fancying more terror attacks, more social dissolution, more economic regression... for fear of... what exactly?
