The French Foreign Minister Michèle Alliot-Marie was forced to resign today.
Alliot-Marie and her family's connections with the former Tunisian regime under the now deposed president Zine El Abidine Ben Ali's were her downfall.
In her request for resignation to President Nicolas Sarkozy, Alliot-Marie stated that she is not at fault and blamed the media for spreading half-lies against her.
Her sensational offer to send French riot police to Tunisia to help the hated leader crush the rebellion was not well received. She also caused excitement by spending the holiday in Tunisia in the midst of the revolt and to be flown in a jet belonging to a businessman linked to Ben Ali.
"When I'm on holiday, I am not foreign minister." she amazingly enough countered.

I am sometimes astounded by how politically insensitive a politician really can be. It is good to see that there in fact is a limit to their foolishness - well sometimes.
Go away and rot somewhere, Michèle! You brought this on yourself by your own stupid words and actions. Do not for a moment dare blame anyone else for this, you shameless woman!
