La France

The French go to the polls today to choose between what we in the United States would call "a socialist" and a Democrat.

Anyway, here's a photo accompanying a BBC article about the vote.

Are these the French? I would have pictured bitter people with waxed moustaches, berets and cigarettes.

I've always pictured them with a bottle of wine in one hand,..a baguette in the other and running away from a bar of soap,..but that's just me.

You've both been reading blogs too much. Think of attractive young women...

And the Socialist claims there will be riots in the streets if the Democrat is elected. Why? He's allowed himself to be photographed in some proximity to an American flag.

jk,.."young, attractive women" + "France" don't seem to go together in my head.

Now,..if you want attractive Arab women to fantasize about being under those burkhas - try Haifa Wehbe! :)
