Le Corbeau Outs Self

The Financial Times is indispensable for providing US readers with details of another French scandal, since the France-loving MSM [which adores Chirac and PM Villepin for dissing the MSM's bete noire, GWB]studiously neglects news like the indictment of Chirac's bagman Charles Pasqua, a former Interior Minister, for taking money in the Oil-For-Food scandal.

The inference that can be drawn is that Saddam's long-time pal Chirac was getting payoffs from Iraqi oil money for opposing the US invasion of Iraq, and is getting support from the US MSM, which has become delirious in its Bush-Derangement-Syndrome efforts to defeat the democracy project in Iraq. To pin a defeat on GWB in the MSM cocoon would make a perceived US failure in Iraq worth its demonizing the entire effort. Which makes them allies of UbL, but enough of logical thinking, this is the international left we are talking about, and there's no fault on the left, as former SDSers like myself remember.

So Chirac is a peculating fraud, no news there. But "corbeau" or "crow" is French slang for anonymous accusations of criminal activity and one of Chirac's allies, a certain M. Gergorin, is now exposed as being le corbeau in passing on accusations which France's fop PM Villepin, the clothes-horsey backstabber who knifed Colin Powell in the UN three years ago, gaining him induction into the MSM Hall of Fame reserved for those who stymie GWB in any way, shape or form, then employed to stab opponent Nicolas Sarkozy. Sarkozy, a real Mensch, if that's possible in the girlie-man poof-riddled French political elites, actually strongly opposes riots in France's cities and towns!

Now Sarkozy is head of the UMP, which is the only bulwark against the election of a Socialist president, who will take France further to the left than spineless degenerate Chirac has allowed it to wander. Chirac, of course, supports spineless degenerate de Villepin as his successor, as befits a complete failure who wishes to impose an even worse failure than himself as a gift for posterity.

But the word "corbeau" deserves to become a part of American newpaper slang, as most of the MSM grist for their GWB-bashing mill comes from anonymous "sources" whose allegations, like those of the "secret prisons," are never proven, but get the MSM scammer a Pulitzer Prize, like girlie-man Dana Milbank---oops, I meant manly-girl Dana Priest! So hard to separate the girls from the boys, as Dominique de Villepin can probably attest from his perch in the eyries of French elite poofdom.

So I wonder who the corbeau may be who sqawks and croaks in Dana Whoever's ear?
