Oh, Britt, don't worry about Messieur L'idiot :) He isn't even worth wasting our valuable time on. Mainly because Germany got punished the most for WO2, the nazi's and collaborators in countries like Austria, France and Italy never really learned their lesson, so to say. As a result of that, right-wing extremists always are a bit more popular there than in other (european) countries. Let it be said that many, many people regard them as fools, who's anti-democratic and destructive will never be covered up by their seductive rethorics and dark blue suits. Over here in Holland, we are confronted with WO2 in all it's aspects every single day....day after day, week after week, etc. People like Le Pen will never stand a chance...not in a million years. Btw, CNN's not correct....the current president, Chirac won the first round of the presidential elections, not Le Pen. He came in 2nd, and suprisingly socialist Jospin in 3rd...all incredibly close. The 2nd round will be beteen numbers 1 and 2, and Le Pen's expected to have reached his maximum already. In other words, people who voted for the other candidates will likely vote for Chirac, cause they're against LP. Well, always look on the bright side of life! While he is still thinking about things of 50 years ago, the rest of us is looking forward. =)
