    This is a little too "centrist" for my tastes...Macron plans to honor Marshal Petain at Armistice Day ceremonies

    Petain was a hero of WWI. He also was the President of Vichy France during WWII and at best looked the other way as his fellow collaborators rounded up Jews to send them off to Germany. De Gaulle only spared his life because he thought him senile and respected his military service. Many of the other top leaders of Vichy were executed

    Macron's plan to pay tribute to Nazi collaborator Pétain stirs anger

    Marshal Pétain was a first world war hero, but later disgraced as head of Vichy France

      It seems plausible given he was a hero of WWI and it's a day that celebrates and honors WWI.

      That said, F France.

        I'm not sure, maybe Bishop pulls out that race with less commercial time by Slotkin, it was really close and only pulled out in EL. Stevens would have gotten by on less air time.

          CdG wasn't much better. Militarily, he was as useful as an ashtray on a Harley.

              This is a pretty decent summary. Worth the read.

                Hermann Goring was a hero of WWI too. Don't see Germany paying him tributes any time soon.

                Petain was found guilty of treason by a jury; spared due to De Gaulle's intervention.

                  Well the Krauts lost WWI. The Frogs were smart enough to get the US to bail their asses out, so they "won."

                  In any event, Benny Hill > Dorf on Golf.

                        Trump calls out a handful of Republicans who lost by name (Mia Love, Curbelo, Comstock, etc.) and trashes them. Says they lost because they didn't embrace Trump enough.
