anybody watched Chirac's UN speech ?

[tocqueville]

he proposed an environmental UN and was very welcomed by Kofi. Got quite good applauses too.

[malaise]

1. That was a leader speaking

rather unlike Chimpy.

[glarius]

2. I caught the last 5 minutes...noticed the warmth of the applause for him

as contrasted with the stoney-faced reception and luke warm applause for Bush!

[truedelphi]

3. Do you have more details? n/t

[tocqueville]

10. another important point was the Middle-East

where he wants a conference for a durable peace with Israel. Besides he "solemnly" asked Sudan to let peace keepers in for Darfur.

[K8-EEE]

4. Did Chimpster Really Get NO Applause?

If so that's awesome...

[Freedom_from_Chains]

5. No, he got applause but it was pretty limp wristed and was more

a matter of being polite.

[K8-EEE]

9. Oooh....Slow-Clapped!

XLNT, thanks for the 411.

7. Poland's fascist president is a bushbot

boring translator and speech, he is a bolton robot.

[Benhurst]

8. Dear God! Surely you're not saying they gave that frog a better

reception than the Leader of the Free World, the head of The World's Only Superpower?

Oh dear, oh dear, what ever is the world coming to!
