French politician Rachida Dati criticizes investment funds for "looking for returns of 20 or 25%, at a time when fellatio is almost non-existent."

That's translated from French, in which the key word is "fellation," which she supposedly confused with "inflation."

Miss Dati was a love rival of Mr Sarkozy’s third wife, Carla Bruni, for many months as both battled for a place in the Elysee Palace bed chamber. 

Now, why is that relevant?
