Mr Sarkozy made a giant ass out of himself. As a high profile public figure he should expect to have his privacy invaded, especially in a public place (it was on a lake, for crying out loud). But (ultra) right wing arses have a tendency to yell and complain a lot over supposed violations of their rights, while at the same time not blinking an eye when they violate other people's rights. Mr Sarkozy is such a figure, and he happens to be the French President. Go figure.
