#2 At least he's taking advantage of perhaps the single, if not sole, french achievement of the past half-century - nuclear powered energy self reliance.
Of all of Europe, he's in the best position to tell the russians where to go.
Note that he only told us we're "misguided" but told the russians "against" something. A non-subtle difference there.

#4 They're scared russia is going to cut off their gas.
We can do it and get away with it, France has to make some sympathetic noises for russia, or its going to be a COLD winter in gay ol' Paris.

#6 Expect more of this. What politician is willing stick his neck out? All rhetoric aside, they knew Bush had their back. But with Bambi in office, they are on their own, and they know it.

Yep. The French know which way this tree is falling and have no intention standing underneath it.
Sad though. Sarkozy is one of the better European leaders and if he's willing to jump ship this soon in the game I can't wait to see what the rest of Europe will do when The One assumes office.

Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
