Paul Wolfowitz

The Bush administration's signature branded concept of 'Mission Failure' is carried forward by Paul Wolfowitz who, in his own words, promoted his girlfriend to a higher paying job so as to avoid a conflict of interest. It's along the same line as killing our children in Iraq so as to avoid--killing. The branded concept of despicable acts rationalized by nonsensical logic has been fully integrated and advertising agencies the world over can only hope to do as well for their clients.

A new sub-category of Bush product has been recently introduced bearing the name 'Golden Nuggets', which asserts accomplishment in the face of complete inadequacy. Naming is everything as any advertising executive will testify; under oath, unlike certain folks.

The latest news from Hollywood

It appears that Johnny will not be returning to France as a consequence of Sarkosy's election. The flip-side of that coin is that neither has anyone announced their departure as a result of Sarkozy's ascension.

When Johnny comes marching home

Johnny Hallyday is coming home. Apparently, he no longer wants to hole up in Switzerland to wait for Belgian citizenship so he can live in Monaco now that Nicolas Sarkozy has triumphed in the election. For my part, I don't know why anyone would ever want to leave France no matter the reason. Everyone I've known who did were forever trying to recreate the France they left behind in whatever corner of the world they matriculated into. It simply cannot be done.

I do miss The Little Door, however.

Sarkozy aboard the Zaf

It has come to my attention that some are up in arms over the display of opulence on the part of Nicolas Sarkozy in choosing a 60-meter yacht on which to repose for a few days. I take exception to this. Clearly M. Sarkozy has gone out of his way to select a yacht which is the very antithesis of extravagance; one that more closely resembles those freighters on the cusp of decertification favored by Third World immigrants fleeing a tyrant rather than those chosen by the tyrants themselves. The Zaf would no doubt be directed to the servant's entrance were she to attempt anchorage at Monaco, so let's cut the President-elect some slack.

Sarkozy

D'accord. J'ai tout compris.

Finally, some good news!
