call it as it lays...

The French lampoon their politicians on a regular basis. They are relentless.

There is a program on Canal+ shown during primetime that is infamous - Les Guignols. It nightly self-parodies just about anything and everything French.

From time to time they turn their attention to the U.S. Needless to say, they are relentless at ALL times.

The video below is a recent addition. I'm sure that if/when the right wing-nuts see it they will go ballistic. I think it's hilarious and spot on.

and people wonder why Bill Maher is so popular?

just asking...

Um...

For anyone who doesn't speak or read French, what is being sung, "We fuck the world." is not actually what is in the subtitles.

Encule and emmerde actually mean "fuck the ass." Transalations can be so tedious sometimes.

Ahhhh, the beauty of language can be lost in translation.

Did someone famous say that?
