NEW YORK (AP) - France’s president abruptly ended a “60 Minutes” interview aimed at introducing him to U.S. audiences, dubbing it “stupid” and a “big mistake” and refusing to answer questions about his wife.

Before the CBS news show interview in Paris even began, Sarkozy called his press secretary “an imbecile” for arranging the session on a busy day.

“I don’t have the time. I have a big job to do, I have a schedule,” Sarkozy said through a translator before the interview began. In English, he added: “Very busy. Very busy.”

In the interview conducted earlier this month and aired Sunday night, he candidly discussed what he likes about the U.S. But he grew frustrated when asked about his wife, Cecilia, who helped negotiate the release of five Bulgarian nurses and a Palestinian doctor charged with infecting Libyan children with HIV and then failed to show up at a ceremony in which Sarkozy was given a medal by Bulgaria.

Sarkozy Cuts Off ‘Stupid’ CBS Interview

Just how ‘Stupid’ can CBS really be when even the new French President blasts them as stupid??

They want to ask him about politics and world business, great, that’s a good thing but Europeans don’t look upon marital problems and fidelity in the same way we Americans do, and you would think a bunch of so-called journalists, or the so-called journalist staff at CBS as a whole would have known that, it’s not like they haven’t been doing interviews for a while now, don’t the do ANY research??

And if Sarkozy thinks CBS is stupid in general, he’d better be glad that he wasn’t interviewed by that disgusting hack Katie Couric, she’d have wanted to show him the footage of her having a colonoscopy on national television…

CBS = Can Be Stupid
