The "official" girlfriend will have to be permanently forgiving him if he doesn't stop. I don't think you can brush away as a simple "coup de tete" something that has been going on, allegedly, for about a year.I'll try that one on SWMBO ... errr ... actually, on reflection, I won't: I suspect her "forgiveness" would be altogether more painful ...

Clair Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 So... He says he'll have made a decision about who is consort is, and share it with the press (the world and hopefully his two girlfriends) by the time his official trip to the US comes up.That's Feb. 11th...Entre les deux, mon coeur balance...Je ne sais pas laquelle aimer des deux...C'est à...

Chancer Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 He looked to be on the ropes to me, and not just on that question which he refused to discuss other than saying what Claire has posted, I laughed my head off when he spoke of resolving the painfull issue with mutual respect, he hasnt shown a lot of it to date nor does he deserve any.I reckon he hasnt got a clue who he is, or will be with, apparently she will be in hospital for another 8 days making 12 days, wish I could have had 12 days off work and be waited on hand and foot after being dumped [:D]I do admire her though, taking herself away like that and no doubt refusing to talk to him or his advisors was a masterstroke just before his press conference, hope she strings him along until the visit to the states and then drops him in it at the last moment, couldnt happen to a more deserving bloke.

idun Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Didn't they say that the rottweiler was being sedated this week??? Maybe on UK tv?Back to the censorship this last week in France, apparently a respected journalist was allowed to ask the question if the 1st girlfriend was the first dame de France.............! Had to laugh when he said that he would have everything sorted out for his trip to the USA. Since Sarko got the Presidential aircraft, there is more than room for both women on it.

Tancrède Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 I find it difficult to understand what all this fuss is about.Apparently we pride ourselves on being sufficiently grown up not to accord any honour to a person merely because he or she is the son or daughter of 'somebody'. [Cue: Boo to the hereditary peerage, cheer-led by 'Baroness' Jay.]If that is the case, then why should we give a tinker's cuss who is the current shag of one of France's more outstandingly inept presidents?[quote user="Clair"]There is a (very faint and subtle) hint that using second indicates the count stop there (there's no third, fourth...)[/quote]But perhaps, following Clair's accurate advice from another recent thread - if we have to concern ourselves with these people - we could call the one Première Dame, and the other Seconde or Deuxième Dame according to the exact nuance of the situation.

Chancer Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Whilst I normally get cross about making fun of politicians for things they have had no influence on, calling Sarkozy a dwarf, Gordon Browne blind etc I think perhaps the comments about Mr Hollande being myopic may be justified and not just regarding his political and common sense vision.When the first journalist (after the representative asking about Mme Rotty) was giving his question the President was totally peturbed, looking frantically in all directions with a "who said that?" look on his face, the second journalist to give a question actually had to interrupt his speech to raise and wave the micro about shouting "C'est moi!"

woolybanana Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 The terms First Lady and Second lady seem inappropriate; perhaps First Whore and Second Whore. Which titles I justify by his hole in the corner approach to all this.Obama must be laughing his pants off at this man who can't decide which woman to introduce as his concubine.Perhaps ther should be a public vote as to which bint he should shag, officially and which he should keep in the broom closet, so to speak.PS, the DM thinks she might have a bun in the oven. What would she be then; the second concubine with the raisin in the four? Which will be the end of the Rottweiler, kaput, ghalas, foutou etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gardian Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 It says a lot when nobody has a clue what he may have said about reviving the French economy - we and the World's media (and I list them in that order of importance) are only interested in his current difficulties. I'm as guilty in that voyeurism, I'd hasten to add.For anybody who watched the Press Conference this afternoon (I didn't - more interested in the Snooker), was he wearing a crash helmet?

idun Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 wooly please find equally apt terms for the president, the name calling shouldn't just be for the women involved. And I still do not get why the french people interviewed are not making more of public funds being used for 'private' things. They should be screaming blue murder about it.

Clair Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 [quote user="Gardian"]It says a lot when nobody has a clue what he may have said about reviving the French economy [snip] [/quote]I did listen to the whole press conference - in French - (though I wasn't watching as I was peeling a butternut squash and I didn't want to lose another fingertip [:'(] so I couldn't tell you if he was indeed wearing a motorcycle helmet [blink])... and I noticed a clear shift away from the traditional socialist angle - which states that all bosses are capitalist crooks and slave-drivers - towards a definite left-of-centre repositioning... This accompanied by a wink and a smile addressed to those same bosses who need to be cajoled and encouraged to create more of those pesky jobs which will allow him to claim victory over the annoyingly and persistently high unemployment figures...Reminiscent of the early days of the Blair/Brown Labour remodelling...[Www] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote]I agree about the name calling, after all it takes two (or maybe three in this case) to tango?And yes, French people interviewed did say they didn't want their taxes to pay for his private pleasures. And about 67% of those polled said they weren't interested in his private life (I have a printed article given to me but I can't find it at the mo and so can't tell you exactly the source).

Chancer Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I watched it for the first hour or so of the questions plus his initial hour + of rambling, it made me smirk to think that this politician was once a raging socialist, not much trace of it today.It would appear that we are going to be getting into bed with the Germans and then all our problems will be over [:D]Yes I was interested in what I knew would be the first question, more to his response to it which I thought was very undignified, hypocritical even when he spoke of dealing with private matters in a respectfull intimacy, he hasnt been showing much respect and he certainly doesnt deserve any, other than that I wanted to hear his economic plans.They all made sense, I doubt that he will achieve them and they were a complete about face from his election promises, it could have been N. Sarkozy speaking after having stepped in to sort out the mess, not socialism as I knew or understood it but at least the guy doesnt frighten me any more other than speaking about not changing direction but instead accelerating as he clearly cannot see the cliff approaching.

woolybanana Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share Posted January 15, 2014 Concerning the name calling, when there is a Ladfy President of the French Republique behaving as does Mr Hollande, I will use appropriate words for them too.Meanwhile, France has to put up with two first ladies, one of whom could be two, and a president who has, apparently, shiny shoes, all apparently paid for by the taxpayer.His press conference was, by the way, pathetic and hopeless, leaving little for the French to look forward to.A idsaster for France and Europe.

YCCMB Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 It seems he's just as indecisive in his personal life as in his public life. He can't make a decision about the way forward for France and stick to it, and he can't make a decision about who his partner is and stick to it.

Chancer Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Yes Betty, you have hit the nail on the head, he struck me as hapless during the interview.I think that he is someone that a certain type of woman can easily manipulate, if he indeed does have a pregnant one on the other side I can only see this fiasco becoming even more newsworthy as his strings are jerked from two puppeteers.I bet he didnt do the honourable thing with Segolene and was manipulated.
