Right result… bad behavior… women do not buy into the “feminist cause mentality”
7 May 2007 at 4:40 pm | In Nicholas Sarkozy, Politics | Leave a CommentThe French selected the right candidate in Nicholas Sarkozy yesterday, but it appears a few Frenchmen did not like the result.
During riots in several cities after the announcing of the results, 592 people were arrested, 730 vehicles were torched, and 28 police officers sustained injuries. By French standards, this was mild remember.
What is it with the French destroying cars doing riots?
When was the last time a Presidential election caused riots in the United States?
Lesson for Hillary Clinton – Women will not vote for you just because you are a women. You have to have some logical substance behind you. Ms. Royal did not have a campaign of logic or substance. Campaigning on the same stagnant socialist crap coupled with “I am a women so vote for me” statements does not help.
In fact, I would say the reason women voted for Sarkozy instead of Royal is because they knew he would make a France where their children could live safely and prosper. Women like right wing tough guys who take on scum and make the streets safe for their little offspring.
Président de la République française

Return to reality, and botching quotes
22 April 2007 at 9:37 pm | In Nanny State, Nicholas Sarkozy, Paranoia, Politics | Leave a CommentMark Steyn has an excellent column on why most of the academic world is nuts in response to the VT Massacre.
Fundamentally, the academic world at most colleges and universities, excluding Hillsdale of course, can be best described as resembling an mental ward. Free thought is wonderful as long as you do not go overboard with it. Some of the insanity quoted by Steyn goes to that point.
Also, I liked his point that we should quit treating college students like babies. This is an excellent point because why should college students have basic rights like voting, drinking, or serving in the military if they are helpless like middle schoolers. Either they are helpless or they are adults. You cannot have one or the other.
This reminds me of my favorite example of the nanny state going wrong: the government attempting to tell how much a college student can work on campus.
My little brother will be attending college next year and he is going to be on the federal work-study program. One of the conditions of the program, you can only work so many hours a week!
This is disgusting to me considering I have been busting my butt at the library for years now working as many hours I can. Instead, he will be limited to 10 hours a week because some bureaucrat in Washington says so.
Lets look at the facts of me:
Ryan worked an average of 22 hours a week last semester.
Ryan got a 3.5 GPA last semester and has around a 3.5 overall GPA.
Its more than possible to work more than 10 hours and get a good GPA! Why Washington do you want to limit overachievers? Because the government hates those who are independent and successful.
Speaking of mistakes, the Collegian botched my quote in last week’s edition. I am still a Republican, but seeing most people do not understand you can have severe disdain for Bush and still be a Republican. I could launch my tirade why I do not like Bush, but that’s for another day.
It appears the French are on their way to electing a good leader: Nicholas Sarkozy!
