Indeed. What I found interesting about it, and not to knock France since I work for a French company, is that the prior head of the IMF, Paul Wolfowitz, was fired for all intents at the instigation of France, with the fellow in question being one of the chief agitators, for giving his girlfriend a reasonably small raise.
Yet, not that long ago, the same mentioned fellow, while the head of the IMF, got a slap on the hand for having a extramarital affair, on the company dime. Nothing but a "Bad boy, no cookies for you.". Doesn't really give the Euro side of the IMF a very good image since a lot of talk is now about how they got rid of Wolfowitz, not for the raise, but because he was an American that was Bush's right hand man for a while.
