Do we have anyone attending this summit? Or is it just the usual suspects - the anti-American crowd?

[Republicus2001]

sure I'll go along with a new tax - as long as I am represented!

[Pearls Before Swine]

Actually, Chirac is really calling for US taxes.

[NorCalRepub]

Socialist idiot......handouts won't fix this problem. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime...

[TexasRepublic]

I wish that SOB would stop breathing my air!

[RetiredArmy]

This goes along with the UN's little wanna tax everyone to pay for all this crap. Now we are to be responsible for the total welfare of every person on the planet. Tax AMERICANS because WE ARE THE EVIL RICH!!! This Republic got to be what it is through work, not sitting on your lazy ass.

[coconutt2000]

Yet another case of... "We miss the Oil for Food program. Give us another cash cow to steal from!"

[slowhand520]

Redistribution of wealth, The communist Manifesto, Euro trash jargon its all the same.

Chirac Urges Taxes to Help World's Poor [COMMIE WEASEL ALERT]

"French President Jacques Chirac called on the world's richest nations Wednesday to provide billions of dollars in aid for poor countries that would help combat AIDS, poverty and natural disasters."

Sounds like our adminstration ?????

[11th Commandment]

Why don't we tax 100% all the profits the FRENCH made on arms sale and food for oil programs with IRAQ.

[ejdrapes]

Is this the best representative we've got?

[Imaverygooddriver]

For a guy who profits from tyrants, he`s got one hell of a lotta nerve opening his yap. French POS. Leave the tyrants alone who starve their people to death and let`s tax everyone more.

[Tacis]

Chirac is just looking ahead to the day when he is no longer of government employee. He needs to find an opportunity where he can steal as much as he has in the past. These international taxes, like the UN finds, represent giant pools of cash with very, very little public oversight. Chirac, if he or his kind were in charge, could easily skim 2-5% of a ten billion a year fund and still pay enough anti-Americans to get righteously indignant at any suggestion of mismanagement.

[Altamira]

How much aid did Frogland send to the tsunami-affected regions?

Very little? I thought so.

If the Frogleader wants to be generous, tell him to do it with the Frogpeople's money. He can set a good example, and then he'll have the right to preach to us, the most generous nation in the world.

[SMARTY]

"... taxes on international financial transactions, plane tickets or fuel used by airliners and oceangoing vessels."


Perfect! He can degrade his economy and isolage his country even further than he has already.

[Imaverygooddriver]

Chirac knockout punch alert...

[Larry Lucido]

Sure. We can call it "Taxes for Food."

[MisterRepublican]

So when was Chirac appointed Grand Exalted Leader of The Entire World and Known Universe? To tell the "world" to raise taxes! Damn, and they talk about Bush's "HUBRIS"?!!!

[lonerepubinma]

The annual meeting, in the Swiss ski resort of Davos

Why didn't they hold this summit in one of those desperate third world countries ? I'm sure they could use the boost to the local economy. Oh !! that's right, how would they keep the champagne chilled?

[kempster]

Jacques, garder vos mains de mon portefeuille.

[neutrality]

This is funny considering Chirac has generally stood for lower tax rates
