Does the article indicate why the Chirac Foundation is releasing this information now?

ping!

This has been barely reported and aired in France!
Just heard the news once and there was “no comments”.
There was no official reaction from the french government,to my knowledge...

Don’t know if it has been highlighted in USA by MSM...?
BTW the GOP and conservative talk-shows should slam Obaaama big time about this

Actually, ignoring a current head of state you don’t like is a standard leftist move. The first thing Chavez did after his election was to visit France because he wanted to see Carlos the Jackal (who is in a French prison) and he completely ignored the French president (I believe it actually was Chirac at that time).

I tend to think Bambi’s letter was intended as an insult to Sarkozy. And that leaves us with the question of where the heck Bambi gets the time to sit around dreaming up actions like this (with his heavy TV schedule, after all). Bizarre.

It could be that he wrote Chirac to form a bond and knows he is not President. It is an incredible insult to the President of France if he wrote Chirac before the real deal.

This seems the most plausible. The Chirac Foundation is the co-sponsor of an Istanbul Conference called "Water for Peace and Peace for Water." Still, it is a major gaffe to send this out before having even a first official communication with Sarkozy.

Mssr Obama: une immense ballon de merde. C’est vrai. Il y une couille dans le potage.

This is in reply to your post #52. I haven't had time to read all the other 300 posts, so maybe there are others who already pointed this out.

You are totally correct. The letter was addressed and intended for the former president Jacques Chirac, as a reply to his letter of congratulation to Obama after the election. Chirac is quoted on a French website to say that he don't think the greetings have anything to do with his (Chirac's) stance on Iraq, but everything to do with Chirac's involvement in "the dialogue between the cultures". Although, nothing was decided the former president did not exclude the possibility of traveling to DC.

Of course this is a terrible insult to the present French president who has been trying to enter into a dialogue with Obama ever since his inauguration.

Who is next on the list of allies and important adversaries to insult?

Yes, but it is still an insult to the present president, Sarkozy.

Can’t say I’m surprised at Zero’s behavior towards a European nation; they were evil slave-trading countries, don-cha-know. What would surprise me is a similar gaffe towards an Arab or African head of state; THAT would demonstrate the Obama administration doesn’t know what it’s doing.

President Carter was a Naval Academy graduate, a nuclear submariner, business owner, and Governor of Georgia before being elected president. Much as I detest the man, he shouldn’t be compared to Present_ent Obama. Hell, President Millard Filmore is head & shoulders above Barry!

ATTENTION EUROPE:
We may be in need of some assistance here pretty soon... I hope you’ll remember George Bush because he’s closer to what we should have leading our country, although not perfect - but who is...

Thank you — the children and grandchildren who were taught what Communism is and why it’s a threat to ALL OF US.... It’s why people in our families bravely fought to free you from Hitler. Forgive this idiot’s words — he is doing this on purpose to try to destroy our country...
