There are lots of canidates for this one, with the far rightist LePen, Sarkozy, and a centerist whom I can't remember the name of. Some people are predicting Sarkozy and the centerist in the run-off, with the socialist left out once again. But it is supposed to be very close.

France's political parties are so dang confusing I have no idea who's best for the country.

Who cares, people need to get over this politically correct phase. It is getting old not being able to say anything without SOMEBODY being offended or "not comfortable". I'm a yankee capitalist pig redneck, the french are frogs, germans are krauts, welsh are sheepshaggers, and brits are red coats, Jpanese are japs, and nobody got hurt cause I typed that.

Jpanese are japs


Actually they're "slopes".

I agree with the "let's stop being so politically correct", but does this permit me to say kike and coon?

I think "nigger" and "kike" may forever remain on the non-PC list. Even if we are so fortunate to leave the PC obsession behind us. Why is there no unspeakable word for white people? I mean crackers? Is any white person actually offended by being called a cracker? Anytime I have ever been called a cracker I have failed to contain myself and laughed out loud. Whitey? Okay, I fail to find that one offensive in the least? WASP? Sure, nothing. I am sure there are some more offensive words for white people, but I can't think of them and I doubt I would find them offensive. Maybe it is that white people just don't offend so easily (white males at any rate).


Edit: Added quotes. Wouldn't want to be too unPC.

I'll be damned if I let mass psychology dictate what I may and may not say.

That one's just as dumb as "African American" (which assumes that just because someone is black that they have African ancestry), because it assumes that the person is not only white, but also Anglo-Saxon and Protestant, neither of which apply to me.

Multiculturalism is almost as dangerous as environmentalism, in that they'll both be used to justify any abuse of power. I consider myself an American of Irish Descent. Call a black person an American of African descent and watch the leftists in the room vomit out their lower intestines.

Viva le frogs! Did anybody else find it funny as hell in Flushed Away that the frogs were all French? Score one for Jean Reno for voicing the role in spite of that.

I have a friend who quite literally is an African American and he is more white than I am. I was born in the US, my parents are Americans, their parents were Americans and so were their parents. If I am not a Native American, then what am I?
