Voodoo Doll of Nicolas Sarkozy Puts A SPELL on French Courts

A French Appeals Court has ruled that Voodoo Doll of Nicolas Sarkozy may remain on sale, but must carry a notice saying that pricking them “harms the president’s dignity.”

President Nicolas Sarkozy’s lawyer had asked that the VOODOO Dolls be withdrawn from sale, saying the president, like any French person, owns the right to his own image. But perhaps the President of France should have gotten a better Lawyer because the Appeals Court backed the earlier ruling allowing the dolls to stay on the market in “The Name of Freedom of Expression.”

There was a stipulation though…the courts ordered the doll’s marketer, publishing house K&B Editions, to add a warning that using the needles which come with the kits “constitutes an attack on the personal dignity of Mr Sarkozy”. Wellnow, I don’t know about you’all but that just made me want to buy the Voodoo Doll of Nicolas Sarkozy, even more…what a delight.

“Nicolas Sarkozy: The Voodoo Manual” costs €12.95 and includes a handbook and 12 pins. The blue-coloured doll shows Mr Sarkozy’s face on a body covered with some of his most famous one liners, including “get lost, you sad git.”  This remarks was made to a detractor at Paris’ agricultural fair.Isn’t he kind, good old, Nicolas Sarkozy?

The word “scum” another one of his descriptions, this time of suburban delinquents, is placed on the doll’s groinarea. I am sure the surburban delinquits will now know where to “constitutes an attack on the personal dignity of Mr Sarkozy”.

Last year, the publishing house sold a similar doll of Socialist, Segolene Royal, who lost to Mr Sarkozy in last year’s presidential elections. Segolene Royal also recently lost in her bid for leadership of her party. Segolene Royal however, must have a better sense of humor, as she did not file suit against the publishing house, K&B Editions.

The good part of the Voodoo Dolls of President Nicolas Sarkozy is that you do not have to know how to make voodoo dolls, you don’t have to be a Voodoo Priestress, to sick your 12 pins in the Voodoo Doll of Nicolas Sarkozy…all you have to do is buy the Voodoo Doll of Nicolas Sarkozy and stick him where he deserves it.
