George W. Bush was in France recently (yes, shock horror, he’s gone abroad, and not just to somewhere he’s in the middle of invading) where he complimented the French President Sarkozy’s wife. He complimented her intelligence and the choice Sarkozy had made in marrying her, isn’t that nice.

Of course, he is currently trying to win favour over in France after under Jacques Chirac they got along like a house on fire: i.e. a lot of smoke, flames, damage and screaming. But nevertheless, its nice that he’s being nice, eh?

Well, there is another thing. In something of a diplomatic faux pas, he also reminded everyone of the fact that long ago when the USA first came into being (ok, so not that long ago) it was those Frenchies who were helping the Americans in their fight for independence from Britain. Now, thats all well and good, but seeing as his next appearance is over here in Britain, probably the last thing you want to be reminding people about is a bloody war.

But then again, that’s what Bush is all about, Bloody War.
