I didn't know that France was experiencing some sort of electricity shortage.

They seem, however, to have hit upon a solution:

China and France will hold rare joint naval exercises off the mainland's eastern coast on Tuesday, just four days before Beijing's rival, Taiwan, holds presidential elections.

China's official Xinhua news agency made no link between the exercises off Qingdao -- about 780 miles from Taiwan's northernmost point -- and the election.

But the show of military strength and solidarity signaled China's desire to isolate the self-governing island before the vote and its first-ever referendum, which Beijing views as a provocative step toward independence.

All they'll need to do is attach a generator to the spinning corpse of the late Charles de Gaulle.

Even for France, this is reprehensible.

This shit from the French is a disgrace as usual. The only place I heard about this was on Glen Becks radio show. Of course the liberal media didn't mention it. F the French. Wait till they get hit by the Islamists. I wonder who they'll run to? I wonder what Kerry would say about these jiont exercises. Oh yea, he's been working with world leaders already so I'm sure he was consulted by Chirac.
