Keep Your Eye on France

History of Horrifying Guillotine Executions in France | by Hdogar | Lessons from History | Medium

Think they got ’em pissed off enough back then?

It should be big news when a mob of protesters gathers in front of a government bigwig’s home and pelts him with mud and garbage. But it happened in France, not here (https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/01/french-protesters-go-parliament-members-home-hurl-mud-garbage-face-video/).

Last week it was President Emanuel Macron vowing to make life miserable for “the unvaccinated,” whom he said aren’t even citizens–yessir, he promised, he would “really like to piss them off.”

Apparently he has.

The member of Parliament who was anointed with garbage was one of Macron’s allies, who supported “vaccine passports.”

The French have a history of truly, deeply pissing off the people but not paying much attention to it. These are people who killed their king and queen. Then there was all that mess with 1848 and 1870.

France has been quiet for quite a while now. If I were Macron, I’d be careful about stirring them up.

 

Pretty Boy Prez of France Spends +$30G on Hair & Makeup

They just had to have this guy Macron to be their president–just had to have him! And now the French are miffed because Pretty Boy has, in three months, spend some 26,000 Euros on his hair and makeup (http://www.politico.eu/article/emmanuel-macron-spent-e26000-on-makeup-in-three-months/). That’s over $30,000 in U.S. money.

Okay, compared to what Ol’ *Batteries Not Included and his wife spent on decorating and amusing themselves, Macron spends peanuts. But the U.S. is a richer country than France.

I wonder how much money DeGaulle spent on hair and makeup.

It turns out Macron’s immediate predecessors spent almost as much money primping and preening. Meanwhile, Macron’s sky-high popularity is down to under 40%. And that’s with the French media giving him a leg up.

Well, mes enfants, you could’ve had Marine LePen: she’s more of a man than any of the others. But the media kept telling you Macron was a “centrist,” a nice and comfy centrist, and LePen was an “extremist” for wanting to keep France French–and it seems that now you’ve got what you deserve: a president who ponces around in front of a mirror singing I Feel Pretty.

It’ll take a miracle to save Western Europe from itself.

And I don’t know why God should grant them one.

P.S.–“So where’s the picture?” you ask. Well, today the computer is not letting me post any pictures. I don’t know why. Someone ought to invent a computer that can feel pain. And fear. Then maybe we’d get some cooperation. P.P.S.–If I try it on the laptop, then it works. I don’t know why.

French Honcho Likens Self to Roman God

Emmanuel Macron is president of France because the French nooze media never, ever wrote or mentioned his name without attaching the comfortable label “centrist” to it.

But now he’s telling the noozies that his thought processes–is that what those are?–are “too complex” for them to understand. And, having summoned legislators to attend him at the palace of Louis XIV in Versailles, Macron is said to have expressed his intention to govern as “a remote, dignified figure, like the Roman god of gods, who weighs his rare pronouncements carefully” (http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/07/04/macron-announces-govern-like-jupiter-roman-king-gods/).

Or, as Caligula used to say, “For ‘Jove’ read ‘me’!”

Is Macron trying to out-Obama Obama? I dunno, which is better–making the sea levels go down, or turning into a god? Stay turned for additional rare pronouncements.
