You don't invited a classy dame, like the First Lady of France, to eat "hot dogs and hamburgers" for lunch.


French first lady goes for walk in town day after Bush snub
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.

I find this story so annoying. Red neck trash, and they think it's "charming" and the whole world is going to be "charmed" by their, no doubt "unpretentious" hotdogs and hamburgers.

I would not have gone either.

Can we have a more undignified president?

I wonder if he offered her Pringles potato chips for this presidential lunch.

Yeah really. This is a woman who probably eats nothing for lunch but some very fabulous wine, and some cheese and a little french bread, and maybe some fruit. And you know, that might be "elitist" but it beats the hell out of "charming" hotdogs, which, in fact, have zero charm, and these beverly hillbilly types better get real.

That last statement is kind of weird. Is it a self-admission?

Anyway, if you think inviting a totally classy lady like the First lady of France over to your house for hot dogs and potato chips is a distinguished way to treat a guest of this nature, then you're more of a moronic, backwoods cajun that I ever suspected ;)

Hello stereotype.
 
If I were president, personally, I would never invite anyone to anything. I would make them beg to have dinner, haphazardly insult whoever's customs I found crass, and I'd nuke anyone who wasn't at the doorstep with my assistants and my assistants assistants trying to tell me about how their people are starving other such emotional rubbish.

I'd hire real flappers, and flappers for the flappers, and flappers assistants to tell the flappers when to flap....

The above description would likely be her evening meal. The French tend to have an excellent lunch, and more of a "supper" in the evening as opposed to a dinner. Franks and burgers are FAR below what the french tend to eat at lunch.
 
You know...they do have hot dogs and hamburgers in France, y'all.

Myself, I'm no fan of the French moutard, but that is neither here nor there. I only hope they paid for it themselves and not on the public dime, but if the President's gotta eat, I'd rather he get his grub from the grocery store like everyone else as often as possible.
 
'Sides, the official story is that she and the kids were not feeling well that day.

...And I love hot dogs, especially the Kosher variety, which many would say are a delicacy.

They are the only dogs we purchase. (It is for the wife and kids, I don't eat them folks.)
