(Video from Real Time with Bill Maher)
Now that the conservative candidate, Nicolas Sarkozy, has won the French presidential election, maybe American conservatives can stop bashing the French. After France refused to blindly endorse Bush in his rush to war, they suddenly became The Great Satan in the eyes of many American right-wingers. French jokes were all the rage. Freedom Fries? Now that we know that the French were right about the war, do you think that we might owe them an apology?
Of course, even though the president-elect of France is a conservative, he is against the Iraq war. It's just about impossible to find anyone these days who will admit to believing that the war was a grand idea and worth the sacrifice of American lives and treasure.
