From the article:
...the pulse of France can also be measured with the new satirical newspaper.
...
The first edition in December sold 7,500 copies
France has a population of 60 million.
Hardly 'the pulse of France' is it? Seems to be more the Americans are still focusing on bad French things to keep their holier than thou atittude.

"By ordering troops into Iraq over European protest and refusing to back international efforts to curb global warming, Bush looks to some Europeans like a cowboy thumbing his nose at the world."

Oh how quickly you forget to how many dictators the US either sold or just plainly gave WMD; Saddam being just one...

I vote. And all my friends vote. In a country where attendence is 85-90%, that's kind of not rare.
