Today’s quote comes to us from French Prime Minister francois hollande (lack of capitals is intentional) – the “man” who declared war on terrorism after 130 people died at the Bataclan Theater last November.
Now that there are at least 84 dead and 100+ injured after another terrorist attack, this time in Nice, here’s what hollande has to say:
“Times have changed, and France is going to have to live with terrorism, and we must face this together and show our collective sang-froid,” he said. “France is a great country and a great democracy and we will not allow ourselves to be destabilized.”
Translation: “Waaaaahhhh, I said we were fighting a war against terrorism, but the truth is I don’t have a clue about how to do it. Waaaahhhhh, maybe if I take a few minutes off from my $11,000 a month hair care regimen (that’s not a sarcasm – read all about it here) to tell the country we’ll just have to live with it, and toss in a reference to showing collective sang-froid (staying calm under extreme stress) they’ll think I’m saying something really great. Maybe they won’t notice how completely useless I am”
I award francois hollande Quote Of The Day “honors” for showing us, with crystal clarity, that he is every bit as “capable” of fighting terrorism as US President Barack Obama is.
I hope, for France’s sake, that its people find a way to get rid of him…just as I can’t wait for us to get rid of Mr. Obama.
going to have to live with terrorism
Thank God they didn’t say in WW2
“We’re going to have to live with naziism.”
Cowards!
