Transparency For First Mate

Although some political opponents of French President Sarkozy are critical of his public romps with model Carla Bruni, I’d rather her transparency to that of prospective First Mate Bill Clinton, exposing the couple’s do-anything pursuit of power.

Rare, but this day I’d rather be French.

According to Spiegel Online, the DT magazine spokesperson, where the photo appeared, Maria Sanchez told SPIEGEL:

[T]hat the photos had been taken just before Bruni and Sarkozy made their romance official in mid-December. Says Sanchez: "It's Carla Bruni's last photo shoot."

We wish Bill Clinton had similar newfound modesty, instead of Bruni.
