"refreshingly NOT French!"

I thought it was "refreshingly NOT French" what the newly elected President of France, Nicholas Sarkozy had to say about Illegal Immigration when he took over the country.

After announcing that he had ordered an initial 25,000 illegal aliens to be deported to their home countries by the end of the year, Sarkozy told the French people and the clearly dumbfounded French Press, "France needs a new type of immigrant - one who is selected, not endured!"

" Oh la la! Zut alors!"

In a country that has proudly considered itself "Europe's choice" for asylum, (at least) Sarkozy recognizes that nearly 500,000 illegal aliens in a country of 63 million is becoming a problem! President Sarkozy followed up his declaration with tougher immigration legislation and "fast-tracked" deportation actions. To this point the Immigration Ministry has caught and acted upon nearly 12,000 illegals throughout France. Sarkozy keeps a weekly eye on the progress and has told the members of parliament, "I want us to be able to establish each year, after a debate in parliament, a quota with a ceiling for the number of foreigners we accept on our territory."

Gee, I wonder why our Liberal (but unbiased) press and news media haven't picked up on this story? Wasn't it just last year that Conservatives & President Bush were roundly chastised by Congressional Democrats - who urged us to change our legal system and become more like France??? (Doesn't Johnny Depp threaten to leave the U.S - at least once a year - because America isn't like France!)

(Hmmmm, I wonder if the U.S. has deported more than 12,000 illegal immigrants yet this year? Could we please start with Depp, Penn, Mrs. Sarandon, Mr. Sarandon, and Baldwin?)

Dum Spiro Spero!
