French Environment Minister Segolene Royal, representing her government at a tribute for Fidel Castro in Cuba, defended the late communist leader’s human rights record on Saturday, questioning whether the regime imprisons dissidents.

The former socialist presidential candidate called Castro a “monument of history” and a “symbol of a very deep friendship between Cuba and France.” […]

Hollande’s ex-GF with whom he was living in sin and had four kids with. That goofy smile is a thin mask for a very evil heart.

These days Paris is an odd mix of both Cuba and Mecca, given the large North African refugee population living on the streets of the 19th arrondissement. Royal and the socialists have run a beautiful city into the ground.

Well, not surprising what with her ex-BF being a socialist too. She is a year older than him, and now he’s with someone twenty years younger than himself. I can’t imagine what they filled their four kids’ heads with.

Madame Royal is far from stupid; she is just extremely adept at manipulating “useful idiots,” and in France, they are legion.

“I can’t imagine what they filled their four kids’ heads with.”

One of Mitterrand’s sons turned out to be a pervert known for sexual tourist junkets to Thailand. He even wrote a book about it.

The rot is thorough.

Why would anyone care what the dead French have to say? They have failed and will be extinct soon.

You’d better. France is ALSO a Nuclear Power and one of our strongest allies, notwithstanding the current idiot, Holland.
