"The White House's coolness has added to embarrassment at the Elysée Palace over the way they have bungled what Sarkozy wanted to be a supreme Franco-American moment in Paris and especially Normandy. The final straw for Paris was the White House's undiplomatic public reproach this week to Sarkozy for failing to invite the British Queen to the 6th of June ceremony.
"Obama is turning up in Paris on Friday evening, but spending the evening privately with Michelle and his entourage. He is not due to see Sarkozy and Carla Bruni at the Elysée. Their only tête-à-tête will be in the Normandy town of Caen on Saturday. The Americans have refused a French request for the two men to hold a joint press conference. The D-Day ceremony at the US cemetery at Colleville, by Omaha beach, has now been widened to include Britain's Gordon Brown and Prince Charles and Stephen Harper, the Canadian Prime Minister. Then Michelle Obama is staying on in Paris on a private visit for several days.
"The Elysée is exasperated with the Americans, Europe 1 radio reported this morning. "Barack Obama has truly done nothing to give value to his relations with Nicolas Sarkozy," said their breakfast news."
It's just embarrassing.
SARKOZY HAS TO GIVE OBAMA A GOLD CHAIN AND LET HIM TALK ABOUT HIS MUSLIM ROOTS FIRST, THEN OBAMA WILL ACCEPT A MEETING
ReplyDeleteWhat can I say? Barry hates white folks, and he hates their leaders, too.
ReplyDeleteFor the life of me I can't understand why this Obama guy is kissing the ass of those who hates us, and trying everything he can to piss off those who are considered allies.
ReplyDeleteI know why, but I still don't get it.
But then again I find it ironic. Wasn't it the Germans and the French who thought we needed this Obama guy as our president. Now that he was forced on us by the left, the German and French leaders don't like him.
Maybe next time they will leave American elections to Americans.
