9. He was helping a woman down the steps... Sarkozy, however...

...seemed to be enjoying the view.

That said, I have found that Brazilian women are certainly some of the most beautiful in the World. One can look, ferchrissakes. This level of puritanical hogwash is obviously meant to be a cheap distraction.

Had a black president done what Bush did, the media would be all over him.

15. And Matt Drudge continues to dominate DU
Drudge is a real-life troll, if people would just ignore him he would go away. People just can't seem to do that though.
