Sarkozy under pressure to speak on marriage

Why does he have to say anything at all about his marriage? I thought they were supposed to be all French about this kind of thing: C'est L'amore and all that horsecrap....

I’d guess that, ball of energy that he is, he’ll find time to romance some hot babe.

Sarko was born in France to a French born mother and a Hungarian born father.

He had one Jewish parent, his maternal grandfather.

People who are of the Jewish faith born in France are French, just as people of the Jewish faith in America are, well, Americans.

What difference does all this make?

"What difference does all this make?"

I wasn't the one who started the thread in # 5 with:

"Cecilia lost me first when she proudly declared that “I do not have a drop of French blood in my veins” during the campaign."

It does seem odd to me that a woman whose husband was going to be President of France would make a statement like that.
