Mrs. Sarkozy sure has a lot of class
:)

French first lady goes for walk in town day after Bush snub
AFP
Published: Sunday August 12, 2007

Cecilia Sarkozy was seen Sunday taking a stroll in the northeastern US town where she and the French president are vacationing a day after she declined lunch with the US president.

Mrs. Sarkozy was photographed walking with two friends in town, after a day earlier turning down an invitation for a hot dog and hamburger picnic with the US president and his family at the Bush retreat in nearby Kennebunkport, Maine.

Cecilia telephoned Laura Bush about an hour before lunch to explain she had a throat ailment and that she and her children would not be able to make the gathering, touted as a rapport-building casual lunch between Nicolas Sarkozy and George W. Bush.

Bush said he was "disappointed" by her absence but understood. The French president expressed regret for having passed the illness to his wife.

Nicolas Sarkozy, meanwhile, was seen wearing earphones and jogging on a lakeside path with a seven-strong entourage. The couple and their children have been vacationing in New Hampshire since late July.

1. The idea of lunch with the Bushes
is enough to make anyone ill.

Glad Mrs Sarkozy went shopping instead.

2. hot dogs and hamburgers aren't likely on the menu,
either. If someone were going to feed me MDM I wouldn't be eager for lunch either.

4. Sorry.....mechanically deboned meat.
Don't google it before eating hot dogs or luncheon meat. Trust me on this.

5. Manners are what we use instead of saying "f* you, go to hell)
Having a contagious sore throat, not wanting to pass it on, not desiring a meal of cow pate on bad white bread along with pig food (corn on cob) with kids and mrbush, yes, she has class.
