I always wondered what happened to ol' George. ----- Original Message ----- From: KatrinaMartin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx To: tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, August 10, 2005 2:19 PM Subject: @WL [tcb] Re: Katrina's birthday Thanks Sharon! Cute comment by Bette Midler. I was wondering who Georges Clemenceau was. I got my history lesson for the day. Georges Clemenceau (1841-1929) was French prime minister twice, in 1906-09 and from November 1917-20. Nicknamed "The Tiger", Clemenceau's staunch republicanism brought him into early conflict with Napoleon III's government. Although trained as a doctor he travelled to the U.S. where he remained for several years as a teacher and journalist, returning to France in 1869. Following the 1870 overthrow of Napoleon III, Clemenceau became mayor of Montmartre in Paris. A member of the chamber of deputies from 1876 as a Radical Republican, he failed to win re-election in 1893 after being implicated in the Panama Canal scandal, and unjustly accused of being in Britain's pay. There's more ... But I won't post all of it.
