Bruni & serious look..!

Robert Clements

Thursday, May 27, 2010 - Many, many years ago, before the advent of the contact lens, cruel boys wanting to taunt a girl wearing glasses would shout, “Boys don’t make passes at girls wearing glasses!”

Maybe Carla Bruni heard such barbs in her youth, yelled in her native Italian and decided to change quickly to wearing good ole contacts, and suddenly hey presto, the ugly duckling became a beautiful swan and finally the Queen of France! Till suddenly she finds that the world looks at her as glamorous Barbie doll, but glamorous doesn’t mean they concede she’s got a brain, so one fine morning when Sarkozy sits to have breakfast of coffee and a roll of toast or whatever else the French eat at breakfast time, I wonder whether wine is there for breakfast, but ah I tend to wander, in comes Carla wearing spectacles: “Hi Nicolas!” “Merde what is this?”

“What is what?” “Where is my little Carla?” “Your little Carla is taking a vacation, I am the new Carla!” “But I want my old Carla, you look like my grandmother with those spectacles!” “Excellent!” “Excellent?” “Yes that’s what I want to look for my French people, like a grandmother!” “But I don’t want them to think I married a grandmother!” “Too bad Nicolas I have my plans!” “Plans what plans do you have by looking like a granny?”

Carla walks to the newspaper rack and takes out a paper, “According to the latest polls husband, you may not come back as president!” “Ah the polls, who’s bothered!”

“I am!” “You are?” “Yes! I like the good things in life Nicolas like living in the presidential palace, treated like royalty by the whole world, ah I’ve got used to it!” “So how would wearing glasses help you continue living this way!” “I have plans!” “You do?” “Yes, if the French people think I am intelligent and clever, they will elect me as President no, after you are out?”

The French President looked at his wife and sighed, “Carla, Carla just by wearing glasses don’t make you intelligent, look at Sarah Palin, glasses and all, the Americans didn’t let her get near the White House!”

“Damn, damn, damn!” shouted Carla Bruni as she threw her new spectacles onto the ground and stamped on it, “I thought I could fool people!” “Of course you did,” mused Sarkozy, “You fooled me into thinking you married me because I was Sarkozy and not because I was the President..!”
