Latest Video Hit: Sarkozy Calls Citizen "Idiot"
"Sarkozy was filmed smiling and shaking hands with visitors as he arrived on Saturday for the opening of an agriculture event, dubbed the "world's biggest farm" which draws an average 600,000 people to celebrate French farming. Reuters reports.
As he moved through the crowd, Sarkozy drew near the man, who told him, "Oh no, don't touch me." The president, who kept smiling, responded: "Go away, then." "You disgust me," the man said. "Go away, you bloody idiot," Sarkozy responded."
The encounter posted on the website of the French daily Le Parisien had received some 330,000 hits by midday Sunday and was also featured on the popular YouTube and Dailymotion sites. Sarkozy's office refused to comment on the incident."
