Presidentin’ is hard
They all look the same, you know.
BTW, if Bush had done this, it’d be front page everywhere. Now that it is the chosen one, not so much.

Meh. I’m waiting for evidence that this is even a big deal in France. So far, the only thing I’ve seen anyone point to is Ace’s link to a French newspaper, where the letter rated a “news in brief” blurb that says nothing about anyone being upset about anything. And there certainly hasn’t been any evidence presented to suggest that Obama didn’t know Chirac isn’t president any more.
Looks to me like Right Blogistan getting all atwitter (pun intended) over not much. Again.

yeah, have to agree with tgirsch.
as much as I WANT the original story to be true it looks like a false alarm. assuming the account in the second french paper was true, President Jug-ears was simply replying to a previous letter from Chirac on a matter completely unrelated to Chirac being pres-o-dent of France.

If Bush had done this and it was front page news everywhere, those media outlets would look pretty stupid—Obama was replying to a letter Chirac had sent him as the head of the Jacques Chirac Foundation for sustainable development and cultural dialogue, not as the President of France.

Looks like dumb hit pieces on President Obama (how I love typing those words) is actually kind of difficult too. Oh horror of horrors, the President replied to a letter sent from former President Chirac..nice try folks. Next…
