Jean-Marie Le Pen was a very popular contendent for the Presidency against Chirac. The US did not like his conservative views, and supported Chirac?

[eastsider]

Her latest outburst, a book called Un Cri Dans Le Silence, attacks Islam, gays, the unemployed, teachers and illegal immigrants, and calls for a return of the guillotine.

She says that gays are fairground freaks, teachers arrive at work with greasy hair wearing disgusting jeans and muddy trainers, and that "the professional unemployed" don't even want to work illegally.

The sex kitten who roared.

I didn't know Americans could vote in France.

The Guardian characteristically neglects to point out that Bardot's book is number one in sales at Amazon.fr, that she has been sued as a "racist" under French law at least three times previously, and that she likes Chirac.

From AFP:

In politics she likes President Jacques Chirac "as a human and a friend," and praises his stand on Iraq (news - web sites). Far right leader Jean-Marie le Pen and Trotskyist Arlette Laguiller are sincere and consistent. But the rest are "weather vanes who turn left or right as the fancy takes them."

[dfwgator]

Le Pen is no conservative and he hates America even more than ChIraq.

Good to know that France has a law against thinking and speaking.

[Redbob]

Bravo!
(Ummm, would anyone have a good Brigitte photo to post - just in the interests of intellectual accuracy, of course?)

At the height of her sex kitten carreer circa 1958-1960 La Bardot was an enthusiatic supporter of various left wing causes most notably being opposed to the Algerian War. It would seem she has become another liberal mugged by reality and is really angry about what reality is for France.

amazon.fr was listing the title as "Le dernier cri," but they seem to have corrected that. Sure enough, it is now Un cri dans le silence. It is now #2 in sales at that site, by the way. Still no review there.

[Bardot] attacks Islam, gays, the unemployed, teachers and illegal immigrants, and calls for a return of the guillotine.

I think I'm in love .....and I don't care if she's 29 years my senior.

[Mr. Mojo]

The Movement Against Racism And For The Friendship of Peoples (MRAP) and the League of Human Rights said yesterday they would sue her.

The Frogs wouldn't know of freedom of speech and freedom of association if hit them in their derriers.

She claimed that it was while driving between the two houses on her way to feed the goats that she realised that "the intrinsic and fundamental values of mankind no longer existed".

Wise woman.

[Mind-numbed Robot]

Mouloud Aounit, the president of MRAP, said: "We expect justice to hit her hard. We need a ruling which will dissuade and prevent her from making further outbursts."

Darn, that's tough. It is not like she was eating at McDonalds or something.

[biblewonk]

She says that gays are fairground freaks, teachers arrive at work with greasy hair wearing disgusting jeans and muddy trainers, and that "the professional unemployed" don't even want to work illegally.

Wow she has transformed from physical hottie to conservative hottie.

[N. Theknow]

Ah, yes! Brigette Bardot.

The reason I wear glasses.

[Lion Den Dan]

Where can I get the good lady's book in English? Bardot and Waterman fountain pens are about the only decent things to come out of France.

[cake_crumb]

"We expect justice to hit her hard. We need a ruling which will dissuade and prevent her from making further outbursts."

Translation: she does not agree with our Islamophile, tyrant-loving, terrorist-appeasing (that includes the political terrorism of special interest groups) government, she doesn't like the influx of our illegal, non-working, Islamist-terrorist friends, and SHE DOESN'T LOVE JAQUES! Therefore we will forcably silence the b*tch.

The French are such a TOLORANT bunch. There's no right to free speech in France, and Bardot has my sympathy. They might even bring back the guillotine just this once...just for her. When do the book burnings for Un Cri Dans Le Silence begin? Of has the burning commenced already?

[PsyOp]

Go Bridget! I see a fox-news info-babe contract in her future.

"The US did not like his conservative views, and supported Chirac?"

The US did not have anything to do with the French election. I don't recall President Bush making campaign speeches for Chiraq, a la Clinton.

[AgThorn]

born in 1935? wanna bet she don't look this good any more?

but gotta love her for many of her views! and "views" of her!!

[conservativemusician]

How dare she speak her mind!

I guess there is nothing like the 1st amendment in frogville.

[freedom44]

Le Pen is Pat Buchanan of France. He's far from a conservative--out-dated with radical views.

Plus, he doesn't like the USA and would have been a tougher challenge than Chirac.

[freedom44]

Plus you forgot the mention that Le Pen hates Jews as much as he hates Muslims.

Once you find that out i figure your views will change.
