He was also the first political leader in France to accept a video podcast which was noticed.

UMP is an homophobic party in France . This party was against a gay partenership ( called PACS ) and they organized a protest where some people said "gay people should be burning" .
Sarkozy the chief party accept that one of his deputy called "Vanneste" say : gays people are dangerous for humanity . Now he refused same sex marriage . He is devoted to the homophobic lobby .

About

Welcome to my blog. Based in San Francisco, I am an entrepreneur and a blogger. I just started my fifth startup, Seesmic, a community driven video social software. Here is what TechCrunch says about it.

I am blogging every day a video on loic.tv about (almost) everything I do as I start Seesmic, I also constantly post short thoughts to twitter and often my pictures on Flickr.

I also organize every year in Paris the conference LeWeb3 that gathers more than a thousand bloggers and entrepreneurs from 40 countries on Dec 11 and 12.

If you would like to learn more, here is a bio, my LinkedIn profile, my wikipedia pages in english and french. Sometimes they are subject to changes that do not always reflect what I consider the truth but that is the principle.
