Carla Bruni Makes French Politics Interesting

Have you heard about the scandalous political scandal that has all of France positively ... er, scandalized? We don't read the papers much, but from what we've gathered some dude who's like the president or something totally cheated on his wife and unlike in some countries (ahem) French people are usually down with the whole world leaders having mistresses thing, except that this dude dumped his wife in the middle of a campaign (maybe?) and then (probably?) married his hottie model-singer girlfriend who loves to hang out on beaches in her bikini. Again, our grasp of parliamentary procedure in the European Union is a little weak, but we consulted several political science manuals and this photo gallery and came to the conclusion that Carla Bruni is pretty much the hottest thing to come out of Paris since Freedom Fries. Isn't international diplomacy awesome?
