French News

In this video, which is entirely in French, Marine Le Pen accuses Federic Mitterand, the Minister of Culture, who according to Wikipedia also happens to be openly bisexual, of going to Thailand to have sex with young boys. Apparently, he describes something like this in a book he wrote in 2005. FLG isn't quite sure what's going on here, and will keep you updated on developments whether you are interested or not.

UPDATE
An interesting comment on Le Monde's site:
La chasse aux sorcières commence ! J'avais prédit il y a quelques temps que la société française adopterait la morale et l'hypocrisie de l'Amérique puritaine.


Translation:
Let the witch hunt begin. I've predicted a while ago that the French society would adopt the morals and hypocrisy of American puritanism.

UPDATE II:

The Le Pens are nutjobs, so this is most likely just bluster. But I can't imagine a US politician going on TV and accusing others of pedophilia. Even if it were true, I think they'd leak it to the press rather than go on Meet the Press with the info.
