Oh dear

September 28th, 2010 at 4:30 pm by David Farrar

The Herald reports:

Without any attempt at double entendre, it could only be described as a slip of the tongue. The former French justice minister, Rachida Dati, 44, has become an overnight internet sensation after accidentally using the word “fellation” instead of “inflation” in a television interview.

A clip of her mistake has become one of the most viewed items on the French-language internet. The former minister, now a Euro MP, was talking about job losses at Lejaby, a foreign-owned French company which specialises in lingerie.

“These foreign investment funds are only interested in excessive profits,” she said. “When I see some of them demand a return of 20 or 25 per cent, when fellation is almost non-existent… I say they are just trying to destroy businesses.”

Oh this is a superb gaffe. Almost as good as John’s Carters “cunning stunt” a few years back.

To make it worse for the MP she is rather attractive, which makes her comments more noticeable.

Did I say rather attractive? Maybe a bit more than that!

    That guy Sarkosy had some great looking women in his government from day ome. Just like the Itie Bersuloni appointing great lookers to various posts in his government

    You gotta hand it to the European guys. Smooth operators. Makes the pacemaker go off the scale just thinking what it would be like to work in that governance environment.

    DPF – As you’re in Oz right now, perhaps you could change the post’s title to something more localised.. like “Fair suck of the sav?!?”

    She chose to become a single mom and refuses to name the father.
    I would have thought that is way too progressive and feminist for you.

    The real question is why did the slime in the form of Stuff.co.nz use probably the ugliest photo ever of this very attractive lady on the front page of their website?

    eszitt – the sperm donor was a flat head frog. Progressive feminists use a plastic thing rather than a real man. You should know that you silly plonker.

    Now she is saying it was a “slip of the tongue”.

    Next she’ll be saying she had a “foot in her mouth”.

    Just shut up woman!
