216 years ago today, the French people stormed the Bastille prison, symbolically overthrowing the old boss and ushering in the new boss during the French Revolution. The revolution spread liberty and freedom to the people and culminated in the rule of a benevolent, democratic ruler who brought glory to France. 

Today, French president Jacques Chirac celebrated by warning citizens that terrorists could attack France. There's something uniquely humorous about President Chirac. While speaking, he gives off the best facial expressions and exaggerated gestures of any world leader I've seen.
