On Sarkozy, the new Bush lap dog...

Isn't it great, to have one lap dog in the path of down-and-out, when you have another lap dog standing by to take its place?!?

I'm talking about Nicolas Sarkozy, the new French president who pledges his tie and closer relationship to US ("America can count on France") and the new lap dog of George W Bush who would gladly go to country with Bush and loves everything that has the America label on it, when the old lap dog of John Howard struggling to retain his own parliamentary seat, not to mention the general election and his grip of the government. There is an old Chinese saying, "one rooster dies, and you hear from another rooster." Rooster-1 is Howard, Rooster-2 is Sarkozy.

I'll take my time to see when Sarkozy is going to go down, to the same path as Howard who has lost touch with the people, thinking that a great economy is all that matters, when Howard fails to understand that the electorate looks for more than just economic stewardship, but leadership in social responsibility. Howard and Bush have failed so utterly, in the latter.
