Wonderful how these Leftists fall over themselves to excuse Chirac's two-week period of inaction while Paris burned. These are the same jackwitted dopes who condemn Bush for not scooping up every man, woman and child and putting them up in the White House during Hurricane Katrina.
And FYI to Herr Ekovich: Chirac's been repeatedly kicked, but it wasn't on his shins!
I love this. They've ruined their economies and their governments with liberalism, yet they think that the answer lies with more liberalism.
