They went to extraordinary lengths last night to appear inseparable - now this picture proves that Barack Obama and Nicolas Sarkozy are the new Dynamic Duo.
Leaping (apparently literally, in the diminutive Mr Sarkozy's case) from a press conference, the pair resembled the infamous superheroes Batman and Robin.

Yes, thye surely were, weren’t they.
‘President Obama, when he says something, keeps his word,’ Mr Sarkozy said. ‘His word is his bond. And that is so important.’

Hahahahahaha....
I almost posted that one instead. I can’t believe so many people recognize that cartoon.
But Obama and Sarkozy also make for a cute couple.
Just a day earlier in New York, Mr Sarkozy spoke bluntly about the U.S. role in foreign affairs, saying the world needed an America that listens.
“You never listen. I don’t need you to fix things, or hand out wheat or supplies or all that money around the world, or bring liberty. I just want you to listen. I just want to be heard. And after that I’m jumping in the sack with the Russians”.
Oh, a funny picture of Barack Obama having a good time with Sarkozy. NOW I feel so much better about him! This changes everything! Whoever in his administration thought this one up really came up with a winner! /sarc
Er, Mr. Sarkozy, you had better rethink that! He certainly lies to the American people.
Good Grief!
