VIDEO - Sarkozy Attacked By Member Of Greeting Crowd

Nothing huge but still not something one sees very often.  Perhaps he was mistaken for Tim Geithner who is rumored to be leaving Team Obama for Goldman Sachs.

A man in a crowd grabbed French President Nicolas Sarkozy by the shoulder and nearly knocked him to the ground before being tackled by security officers and detained.  The incident occurred as the president shook hands with a crowd in the town of Brax in southwest France.  The man was not armed, according to the national police service. An official with the service said the 32-year-old Frenchman lives in the Lot-et-Garonne region.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Treasury prices eased on Thursday, pushing yields up for a fourth straight day, as the Federal Reserve conducted its last bond buyback, bringing an end to its second round of quantitative easing. However, month-end demand for bonds helped some debt to recover lost ground.

If Sarkozy signed off on allowing radioactive waste to be stored in the same watershed as Reims, he should be punished accordingly. Reims gives us Mumm's and Veuve-Cliquot champaigne. It is inexcuseable that these greedy SOBs are destroying everything to "make more money and to hell with my mess". Let the tar and feathering begin.
