Meanwhile, in France

The Huffington Post carries a translation of Bernard-Henri Levy arguing that the French Socialist Party is a "large corpse falling backward" and that the party should change its name. He asks, "What is it waiting for to launch an assault against these speculative instruments -- hedge funds, short selling stocks, leveraging -- which could be easily exposed as destroying more value than they create and as generating a resurgence of social misery?" Sounds like the French left has been taking cues from the Wall Street Journal editorial page.
