He loves to go a chirac-ing

The President of France has started chiracing again. To chirac, according to KickAAS’s private dictionary, is to make high-sounding plans that have no chance of being carried out in order to distract from what is happening at home. President Chirac's
latest pan-planetary initiative (are you listening Mr Bush?) is to tax all weapons sales and corporate profits to help the Third World.

There is a much easier way M Chirac beause it's happening under your watch. Get rid of agriculture subsidies.That would save the West over $1 billion a DAY while giving poor countries a dramatic opportunity to develop crops like sugar and cotton that they can do efficiently but from which they are priced out of world markets at the moment because of immoral and uneconomic Western subsidies.
