Chirac admitted to Paris hospital

French President Jacques Chirac has been admitted to hospital suffering from an eye problem.

The 72-year-old will remain at the Val de Grace military hospital in the capital Paris for about a week.

The hospital said the president was being treated for "a minor vascular incident" that had slightly affected his eyesight.

Mr Chirac's office said all presidential engagements had been cancelled for the coming week.

1. Hope it didn't involve a stroke

I like Jacques...he gets under the Chimp's skin. Plus, he and the Kerrys are very good friend....
