Congratulations, Mr. Sarkozy.....

Robert Schnurstein, Northridge, California

Whan an idiot....he should be focusing uon the significant needs of France. Oh well, his tenure was interesting while it lasted (all of five minutes). Cheers.

Third marriage, how nice

peaches1, would you like to borrow my glasses?!??

Tim, Bristol,

Sarkozy should petrify France. This is a nuclear-capable regime under the finger of a head off state who some would say appears less like a president and more like an ecstatic frat boy reeling deliriously with the fruits and fanfare of this newfound good fortune.

Her face is more plain than homemade soap. And/or a mud fence.

The standards for one to be termed a "supermodel" must have been lowered considerably since the days of Christie Brinkley, Linda Evangelista, et al.

This woman is severely lacking. . .

Oh la la ! Too quick ! I am afraid...

Can you imagine what would happen if a female president did this? She'd be accused of being emotional and unstable. Ce la vie!

Dee, Dundee, Scotland

I don't know why he is president of France, he is hardly ever in the country. He is trying to save the planet whilst flying over it most of the time.

'What's the rush anyway?' Well, there might be a reason, their little secret, wouldn't be the first time such thing 'happened'.

Heike, Lyon,

Batting well above his average there...though I'm not too sure the French would be proud of him when they hit a recession

Tony, London,

Here it is ! Typically Sarkozy. When it comes to his own happiness & wellbeing, there is no waste of time & no financial limit. When it comes to French people wellbeing, employment, wellfare & purchasing power, then they can wait. And they will have to pay for this luxury wedding. How sad is it.

Carla has worked her way up to the top by shagging politicains or philosophers (such as her last boyfriend). But in the end, she's just an old model craving for attention... And Sarko? He's just a young president craving for a "bling bling" style and enjoying the powerful place he feels like he deserves...

Constance, Lille,

I would have thought the French would love this sort of thing. If I were them, I'd be more worried about what this NWO lackey is doing to their counrty behind the scenes!

Jeanette, Arlington, Texas, USA

Carla, in spite of her glamour, sings & talks intelligently as opposed to many belonging to her gender in this nation. Sarko han't gone wrong in his choice. I wouldn't be surprised if the president has more surprices like this for his people. come along, old boy!!

vasco, paris, France

So, Ms Bruni... what first attracted you to the most powerful man in France...

Joe, brussels, belgium

It is a repeat of Mary Queen of Scots and Bothwell. She lost her her common sense when she became besotted with him and it was her undoing finally losing her head in every sense. Nobody will be able to tell Sarko. He will have to find out the hard way like Mary.

I am sorry for the French who had such high expectations.

Gizmo, Chester,

Should Starsko carry on at this pace, I doubt he'll manage to carry on another four years without having an heart attack.
In the meantime while he is flashing his wealth we find cost of life tougher and tougher. Our retirement pensions had a rise of 1.1% rise while gas was rised by 4%, plus many other necessities getting more and more expensive.
Happy new year to all of you and your readers

Ott Christian, Ozoir-la-Ferrière, France

Do i sense a Napoleon syndrome here?! Dude, i had a lot of respect for you, until you decided to get married. Haven't you learnt anything? Whats the rush anyway, you are a relatively young, tough, single President with significant powers and a supermodel GF. it will be silly to change that!!!!!

tk, geneva,

The 'Bling President' should never forget that it was the flaunting of riches and privilige by King Louis that helped to bring on the Revolution. The people here voted for a President and not for a Playboy.

burrator, St Sulpice, France

She's hot. Good for him!!! Go for it Sarko!

Steve in the Boat, Scituate, MA

Some conservative...

Maureen, Albany, NY USA

and here i thought the US had it bad with bush

trashley, garden city, mi,

Looks just like Cecelia.

makettle, Montreal, Quebec

This man just can't pick good women. He should really think about this quite a while before he makes a decision. She appears just like the rest.
