Ferme-la, la France

The French, who haven't been very successful at armed conflict lately -- oh, say, the last 100 years -- are now fighting among themselves over losing a bid for the 2012 Olympics. And they claim the British "cheated."

But French sporting legend Jean-Claude Killy says his country's famed diplomatic rooster may have come home to roost.

Killy, a World Cup, world and Olympic ski champion, said Paris shouldn't "look for pitiful excuses."

"Imagine trying to obtain today the votes of the east. It's really not easy," he said in an implicit reference to Chirac's criticism of Hungary, Poland and the Czech Republic for supporting Washington in 2003 ahead of the invasion of Iraq.

Chirac said it was "not very responsible" or "well bred" of them to do so, adding that "I think they missed a good chance to shut up."

...

(Killy) added that France has no "international sports presence."

No international sports presence, eh? That one is just too easy.

P.S. My French is rusty and overly influenced by Cajuns, so I wouldn't be surprised if I screwed up the title to this post.
