1. I doubt she has any intention of marrying him.

My money's on "lovely young woman playin' around with the preening-but-indulgent doofus and then leavin' him weepin' into his 9-jillion-thread-count pillowcase."

[Eurobabe]

4. Bruni believes in polygamy and polyandry, sounds like

a match made in heaven.

:rofl:

[Heidi]

8. Maybe he'll learn tolerance from her.

Maybe she'll gently lead him over to the dark-but-enlightened side. :evilgrin:

[Angela Shelley]

5. Maybe she has political ambitions?

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

19. She's not that young. The article said that she's about 10 years younger than him. eom

[Eurobabe]

22. She's 10 yrs younger than Cecilia

I believe Carla is 40.

[Heidi]

23. Age makes no difference to me.

My two lovers before I married Call Me Wesley were eight and 12 years older than me. CMW is three years younger than I am. :hi:

[Eurobabe]

28. Hah, gotcha beat, Mr. 48%er is 4 yrs. younger than me.

I only once dated a man 14 years older than me, but it was strictly platonic.

Gotta love those younger men. :D

[Heidi]

35. You CRADLE ROBBIN', expatriatin' STRUMPET!!!!!!

:rofl: :spray:

[Eurobabe]

36. that would be me. LOL

:hi:

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

29. I have been involved with men from 20 years older than me to 10 years younger. No matter

to me either except for one thing. I find that men closer to my age have had the same culture experiences and there is something so comfortable in that. I don't have to explain my material. :) and Heidi! :hi:

[Angela Shelley]

2. What if he promised you a vacation in the US every year?

[Eurobabe]

6. Never, not even wearing one of these...

[Angela Shelley]

7. You know the old German saying?

In der Nacht ist jede Kuh schwarz.

In the night, every cow is black.

[Heidi]

13. There are many, many women who can pay for their own US vacations.

Trust me on that. :hi:

[hlthe2b]

15. They have the French Riviera, all of Europe, all of the rest of the

world, right there... Why, pray tell, would a vacation in the US be such a draw? :shrug:

[Eurobabe]

17. Dunno, but Sarko loves the US.

:shrug:

[alfredo]

18. The weak dollar makes shopping great fun.

[jberryhill]

38. ...and that place in France where the women don't wear pants! /nt

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

20. She can pay for her own. She's wealthy. eom

[Drum]

3. Wellll...I cannot judge....

I am actually acquainted with former wife of Sarkozy---from way back in the day apparently. She's a wonderful lady, so I cannot opine (on anyone who marries him) too harshly. She seems to suffer no bad after-effects from it.
:shrug:

[Angela Shelley]

9. That´s interesting ... how often has he tied the knot?

And good for her!

[Drum]

10. That I don't know.

We met through work circumstances 10 years ago, and she is now married to someone else. Appears to be a contemporary of Sarkozy, age-wise. Every few years I'll see her at a work function/dinner, and we'll chat for a few minutes. The last such time was right after Sarkozy was elected president, and she turned to me and said, "Do you want to hear something funny...?" And then mentioned that they used to be spouses. She told no tales, and I don't know how long they were hitched nor when. She just said how strange it was suddenly seeing him on TV screens and reading his name everywhere, during the French elections. She's a classy lady! :)

[Angela Shelley]

11. Back in the good old days ...

when they would walk the streets of Paris and he would say "you know, in this grand country, everybody has a chance to become President"

[Heidi]

12. And having a divorce (or three) on your record doesn't really hurt one's political aspirations in

Europe. (And I'm perfectly fine with that. Personal life is personal life.)

[Eurobabe]

14. Well

I simply wouldn't even be seen with him because he is MuFugly, and has bad teeth. :rofl:

[Drum]

16. clarification:

seems I was mistaken. my acquaintance was affiliated with NS' father, not the future French president, his son.

sloppy dinner-table retention on my part! :blush:

[Eurobabe]

21. Who rec'd this STUPID thread?

:rofl:

[Heidi]

24. I can't confess to the first rec.

But I gave it the second rec because it's such a nice break from all of the Dem bashing. :rofl:

[Eurobabe]

26. that's why I started it. People have lost perspective re: important things.

;)

[malaise]

25. No

I never liked looking down at my dates let alone my husband and in Zarkopolean's case that would be literally and figuratively.

Sp.

[Eurobabe]

32. Zarkopolean

:rofl: :rofl: I love it!!

[Call Me Wesley]

27. He'll go all 'Kärcher' on you.

RUN!!!!1111!!!!!!

[Eurobabe]

30. Hey you!

Are your ears ringing, your better half is posting about you. :)

[Vinca]

31. Nah, I'd hold out for Fred Thompson.

:rofl:

[Eurobabe]

33. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwww!!!

[judaspriestess]

34. I don't have an answer to your question but damn

I LOVE Carla Bruni.

[WinkyDink]

37. Let's see...He's the President of France, and she's a well-known 40-yr-old groupie.

I'd say she better take this deal.
