First Thoughts On
M’sieu Macron And His
Granny
by
R.E. Prindle
He stuck a feather in
his cap and called it macaroni.
One of the
most remarkable and laughable political performances of the century took place
on the stage of France recently. It was
almost unbelievable straight face stand up comedy.
This cute
little guy who married his high school teacher twenty years older than himself
has been elected by the French to represent them on the world stage in competition
with big boys like Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. He self admits that he has no culture and
neither do the French although I know of some perverts who are deep into French
Culture so tell it to them.
Now, this
little guy, cute as hell, M’sieu Emmy MacRoni who as far I know isn’t installed
in office yet, stood up on the world stage and threatened Russia with dire harm
from France then, turning from the East to the West he threatened the US,
although this time he did invoke the EU.
Apparently he doesn’t know that the EU is a toothless tiger without an
army.
He seems to
be relying on the President’s vocal critics in the US as his support.
Even though
his Granny was a teacher, she appears to have been a little light on geography. Let me school M’sieu MacRoni in modern
geography: France is this tiny little
country on the Western end of the European promontory; China at the Eastern end
of Asia could incorporate France into
its empire off into some obscure corner and never trip over it; India makes France look like an off shore
island as it is also much larger while growing rapidly into an economic power. These two Asian giants together rule world
commerce while China is still organizing.
China is in
the process of laying down a superslab highway along the route of the old Silk
Road with ancillary highways. This will
tie together all of central Asia and with luck extend all the way to the French
coast. China will make the Mongol
invasion a reality.
The world
laughs at M’sieu MacRoni’s posturing. He
seems something of a bad farce to us.
The Russia
that M’sieu MacRoni is threatening is incomparably richer than France; for
instance, it has oil and gas reserves and France has none. Think heating oil. Tell you anything M’sieu MacRoni?
The US that
M’sieu MacRoni is mocking has pulled France’s chestnuts out of the fire twice,
1914-18 and 1940-45. US money set France
back on its feet after WWII. OK, let the
dead past bury its dead. Emmy MacRoni,
who has no culture, has forgotten it so why shouldn’t the US.
The fact
remains that the US also dwarfs France and the US and Russia combined are so
large that France barely shows up on maps.
With a minimum of luck the US and Russia are going to combine. This will leave the EU between the jaws of
the anvil. You know what that
means. The Eastern States of the EU,
Poland, Hungary, Austria, Switzerland are already secession minded so the old
EU is toast. A new EU will be formed
along rational lines.
So, really M’sieu
MacRoni, keep your threats to yourself.
Be meek and mild, like you are to Granny, before your betters and
cooperate fully.
We still
honor the French culture you despise and say doesn’t exist but unfortunately it
is going to be swept away in the course of events so it is irrelevant whether
it exists or not except as a historical relic.
Accept the
role of France in the near future.
France can be only a facilitator and not a leader. On stage you act like you’re still in school
before your teacher. Those high school
essays are cute but they have no place in the real world. It takes more than strut to exist on the world
stage.
French military performance since Napoleon met his Waterloo has been lamentable.Chased out of Mexico after the US civil war,defeated by Prussia in 1870,propped up by Britain and the US in World War One then defeated in 1940 then defeated again in Indo -China and Algeria.Basically they should have given up trying to be a great power after 1870.However I am not sure that history is one of Monsieur Maricons strong points.
ReplyDeleteNice review of French military history. Marcon speaks like he's in front class trying to impress the teacher. But, then, since he married the teacher he probably still is. I think there's a story there with him and Granny. The interesting thing is she manages her appearance to look like a high school girl. Maybe they both got stuck in the twelfth grade and haven't moved into adult life yet. She does it well but the age is showing through. I can't believe all this is happening in my lifetime.
