Some
leaders never miss a chance to remind us they are just fools. Every new
statement, every new proposal, all moves are like reminders of their mindlessness.
But then I recall that Napoleon used to say that “in politics, stupidity is not
a handicap”.
And
I move on.
But
now it seems we have another example. The French political leadership has now
come to the conclusion they want a Frenchman as the new head of the European
Commission. And the name of Pierre Moscovici has been mentioned. He was
Hollande´s Finance Minister up to recently. Then, he lost some local election
and had to leave his Cabinet position. Defeated by the voters in his community,
that know him well, can he be a serious candidate for the top job in the
European institutions?
Really?
Or is it a joke we do not get?
Then
Napoleon´s words came to mind. Not about Pierre, but about the one who is
advancing his name.
