today's visit by Nicolas Sarkozy in Le Puy-en-Velay to salute "the historic legacy" of France is a sham and a provocation. A farce, because it is a pretext completely out of step with the real problems of France and French people today. A farce, because it is staged and that the choice of the city, as the program of President's visit, the cathedral, baptistery and the cloister are all signals to several days of debate villain that UMP plans to launch as soon as April 5, on secularism, in reality about Islam. Remember a tourist point of view that the city of Le Puy, very pleasant after all, dominated by a giant statue the Virgin and thus, by this great and very beautiful volcanic stone cathedral, is a stop on the way to Saint Jacques de Compostela, which does not deserve any comment if, precisely, the president had not chosen make of the decor of the room that he intends to play. And that is provocative. The instrumentalization of a city, its people and, yes, religion itself targets for politicians. The general meaning of his visit, however, will be greeted by a demonstration this morning unions and left formations, is nonetheless clear. This is in line its various policy initiatives of the year and his speech on Sunday to oppose the real France and his alleged Christian roots to anything that threatens it. A foreign offender, Roma, multiculturalism, migration due to revolutions and all that, overall, summarized in Islam. It is despicable to the point that some right has felt obliged to be alert to some concern. And François Fillon. "If this discussion should lead to stigmatize France's Muslims, I would oppose it." If he should. Nice use of the conditional as a way to pose as a safeguard in a sort of division of roles. E t during this time, the UMP, who received last night as a "dear friend," said Herve Novelli, braid laurels Eric Zemmour, convicted for his racist remarks. Which is always invited in at least remains an issue of public service. Why?
polls are falling. The presidential speech does more the resolute and fizzled out of credit, the voice of France, despite the shrugs and stabs his chin, has only weaken, unemployment is rising, the purchasing power is declining, profits waltz, no promises of the former candidate was held unless and this is certainly not a detail, the tax shield and now the likely removal of tax on capital. Make no mistake about it though. All this does not necessarily lead the French to turn to the left in general, nor to a PS awaiting Messiah. It's even on the confusion created by this policy that the National Front to prosper by tinting his speech and social republicanism, while cultivating the land of fatty xenophobia, racism, exclusion. These lands right Nicolas Sarkozy him fight, as the only way now to win in 2012.
Should wait? Nothing could be more dangerous. Now that all those who recognize themselves in a France humanist, secular, republican, social progress and justice can say "it sufffit" and the debate starts to rebuild.
