Swarm The Bastille

This photo was taken at the Place de la Bastille in Paris, during the election celebration for the comrade socialist president Hollande. See any French flags? Anywhere?

There was one French tricolor,but the people were feeling sentimental about the Old Country, so the Palestine and Lebanon flags outnumber the French flags, in this lovely display of multiculturalism.

Those folks sure look happy a socialist got elected, wonder if he has any idea about how to pay for the "end of austerity" he promised.

Germany should occupy this Country too, if they can figure out which Country it IS.

No French flag, just occupying forces.

Hollande is a cynical politician. He will ride any horse to win the race. He assumes whatever demon he raises he assumes he can put to bed.

This is a common wrong thought amongst Western politicians. It is not necessary to state the obvious.

If one has to look for the national flag, one has bigger worries than one thinks.

Enjoy the swarm, Hollande. You earned it.

The people of France have spoken. French democracy has chosen a government it both wants and deserves.

The French flag is white, right?

Kinda like the NDP convention where there were no Canadian flags...

Ah yes, they celebrate well into the night.

Meanwhile the French banks are being emptied by those smart enough to realize that the ship is sinking.

Dumb pinkos. They always love to climb up on buildings and monuments like a bunch of fools.

Isn't this the very place that Bonoparte ended the revolution with a "whiff of grapeshot"?

No French flags? No problem!

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
