DSK, can we believe this?


Recommended Posts

[/quote]Yes it is.  I think it's probably the longest thread discussing politics and social values in France that I have ever seen on this forum.  I wonder why that is?[Www]

I agree with Clair here - one of the few good things to come out of this has been the sudden upsurge in interest in the way in which the tacit acceptance of a man's (not this particular one) "pecadillos" - if I may call them that - continues to undermine the position of women in French society in general.

But, surprisingly, from the most recent polls,without him,  the socialistes would  still get more votes than Sarkozy, and marine Le Pen would not be on the second round. To me, that's what matters.

[/quote]Amen to that.[:)]

The name of Christine Lagarde is often quoted. It seems she's also Germany's choice.

She has a few assets, bilingual, lived in the USA, a very clever woman ;etc..

A bit of a clue here.

International Monetary Fund.

It's not a shoe in for anybody as the rest of the International community are starting to take an interest.

Thanks to many years dealing with low life individuals who slid about trying to bite and cause upset, I learned a long time ago to remember to say "oh" to anything with venom in it to ensure I remembered there was an 'o' in the word...

Surfaced in Haaretz this morning...just posturing...hot air. The important evidence is likely to be forensic and unknown. Speculative guesses are pointless until after the Arraignment on Indictment. The Pre-Trial Hearings may clarify some aspects of the admissibility but disclosure of the prosecution evidence to the defense will be limited and later rather than sooner. Good for the tension & drama.
