Mon pote Obama
Si l’on en croit diverses sources dont le Canard Enchaîné, Nicolas Sarkozy dirait de M. Obama : “c’est mon pote”.
Personnellement, je trouve qu’un “pote” devrait faire preuve d’un plus de politesse. En effet, M. Obama, en tant que “pote” du seul omniprésident au monde, vous vous montrez bien peu courtois sur votre site officiel Change.gov.
J’invite mes lecteurs à en être seuls juges en recopiant ici les annonces officielles (ordre chronologique inversé) que vous faites de vos appels aux présidents étrangers pour les remercier de leurs félicitations à l’occasion de votre élection :
