... all about George W. Bush's verbal faux pas for eight years. What's good for the goose should be good for the gander. Yes? No? Or is one more deserving than the other of special treatment?
I actually would put more faith in Obama that he doesn't need the kid glove treatment, but that's just me.

Well, we've been hearing ... -- Hogarth, 08:28:37 03/23/09 Mon [1]
Obama sent a letter to the president of France, Jacques Chirac. Unfortunately, France's president is now Nicholas Sarkozy. And they had the nerve to call Reagan senile and both Bush's stupid.
This revelation was made by the online edition of the daily Le Figaro on Thursday.
http://www.lefigaro.fr/actualites/2009/03/19/01001-20090319ARTFIG00357-confidentiel-barack-obama-a-ecrit-a-jacques-chirac-.php
Here is a translation of the letter in Le Figaro:
Vendredi 20 mars 2009 OBAMA PREFERS CHIRAC !
Barack Obama does not seem to know that in May 2007, French voters elected Nicolas Sarkozy to the French presidency, to succeed Jacques Chirac who had been president for twelve years.
Yesterday, we told you Sarkozy is irritated because Mister O. refuses to tell him if he will accept to meet him personally in the next few months.
Strangely, we have just learnt this surprising piece of news :
Barack Obama wrote a letter to Jacques Chirac to tell him about his desire to "work with him" for the next four years ! In a letter described by Chirac as "very nice," Obama wrote, "I am certain that we will be able to work together, in the coming four years, in a spirit of peace and friendship to build a safer world." The use of the word "peace" was taken to be an indirect reference to Chirac's stance against the US intervention in Iraq, which Obama had also opposed.

Totally false -- scooter, 12:54:32 03/23/09 Mon [1]
I don't post here anymore but I couldn't let this go by. Hogarth posted a completely false translation of the article in Figaro (really, it's not that hard to accurately translate French into English). Also, see link. Now, on with the hate!
