I'm just a little curious about this, but I was surprised to see that the (London) Independent referred to Nicolas Sarkozy as a "divisive force". I thought it was only American politicians of the right who are 'dividers, not uniters', but obviously not. Are there any left wing politicians who the media refer to as 'dividers, not uniters'? Really, I'm just curious.
Aren't all politicians "divisive"? I mean other than those like Saddam who get 100% of the vote.
I've been amusing my children for the past few days with my efforts to pronounce Sarkozy's name as I heard it on TV5. It's not Sar-kosey, but Sar-ko-zee, with the emphasis on the "zee". At least, that's how it sounded to my ears.
