Sarkozy has earned a reputation for launching rough words over the five years since President. And it seems he is trying hard to dispel this image with the approach of presidential elections in April. But it seems that he lost his patience at a young journalist during a visit Thursday to the area of Chalon-sur-Marne east of Paris, when the question about the clashes between police and striking steel workers in the capital. Sarkozy said, "Do you think I give any attention to what you say? What do you expect me to say?" He added: "O you fool!". Then he turned to the journalist, smiling, patting his shoulder, apologizing for "It's really nice. That young man."
And attacked the Socialist candidate, Francois Hollande, Sarkozy's comments, accusing him to return to the "excesses" and "market" witnessed by five years of his presidency. He told TV "Frans 2": "Do you think that this is the best way to conduct a dialogue in respectable?". Sarkozy's comments came just hours after he personally criticized for his rival Holland said he does not control his temper in a reference to the word delivered hot Socialist candidate in the part of his campaign in Marseille in the previous day.
The cameras have shown Sarkozy in 2008, he says to a man in the agricultural exhibition, "Get lost you idiot," a phrase which has been dogged throughout his presidency.
