This Frenchie's troubled feelings are worthy of impacting our foreign policy? That's a load of crap.

She has no power. She'll be an advisor on a panel. Like Chuck Hagel is on the Intel Advisory Board.

If you're a capitalist then why is the way she makes money any less "real world" and why do you "earn your keep" more than she does? From a capitalist perspective, you suck compared to her.

Surely with your high intellect you've looked back and found the flaw in this reasoning?

Holy frick that's scary. A prof at one of our top institutions. Wonder if she spends any time talking about her and her country's economic failures as a result of her political beliefs? Nah. I wouldn't be shocked if she tells her students France's problems are bc of Bush.
