Y'know, I just wanna say one thing, in all seriousness: I feel sorry for you people that don't drink. I mean it, 'cause when you wake up in the morning -- that's as good as you're gonna feel all day. - Dean Martin

In the morning he personally yells at some striking fishermen, then he flies across the Atlantic, afterwards he decorates some WWII veterans, and then he attends a White House Dinner giving a speech! Long day!

It says here Sarkozy drinks no alcohol but loves chocolate. Loves cycling so he has this in common with pres GWBush

Excellent cincinna, hopefully this trip to Unis Etats is better for Nicholas and more productive for both countries.

I noticed Ross Perot and Baseballs Tom Glavine on the guest list.

Hmm, and John Breaux and Mary Landrieu.

That tells me this visit is exactly what it is meant to be a goodwill visit, I’m glad Sarko came to America.

Robert Pence, of Pence Friedel Developers Inc., and Suzy Pence ........... Anyone know if this guy was the former head of the Atlanta FBI office?

Merci bien pour vos efforts.

This almost makes me glad that I took two years of French in high school!

Please remember that if an alcoholic could drink responsibly, they would drink responsibly. However, they can't, so they don't. The last thing that anybody with a drinking problem needs is a drink.

Frankly, I prefer the leaders of the western world to have clear and not muddled wits about them.

That was probably the Slimes effort at negating the positives of Sarkozky's visit.

Meanwhile, I simply must post this picture of our elegant and svelt First Lady Laura. Look at that stylish dress... Beautiful!

"This cannot be happening in my lifetime..."

Not only is it happening, but the NYTs is reporting it to us! It's a very odd feeling.

[Suzy Quzy]

OMG! That Broussard should be in PRISON!!! WHO invited that LIAR of ALL LIARS??

[PGalt]

Thanks for the ping. Thanks for the pictures. GRRREAT news!

Setting aside the recent anger he has shown because of his divorce

Boy, is that ever NOT what happened. "Setting aside his recent anger at a faux journalist who should be working for a checkstand tabloid" is more like it. Talk about professional backscratching.

[Cincinna]

Thanks for posting the beautiful picture.

Laura looks just gorgeous!

It is difficult to see in this photo, but the dress is actually a very deep, midnight blue, not black. Much more elegant and chic.

[prairiebreeze]

Yes, I noticed the color too!
