The headlines say that Sarkozy lost his temper and ended his interview with Leslie Stahl after she kept asking about his marriage. I don't know where the "temper" part comes in. The video clip shows that she asked him again after he said he wouldn't answer. Sensing that he was dealing with a tactless dolt, he gave up and left.
The French have a more sensible view of private and public lives than we do in America. I applaud President Sarkozy for telling Stahl that he had better things to do with his time. I wish the headlines had been "Stahl proves that she isn't ready to interview international leaders."
