What politician recently compared France to a 1940s actress, and what was the full quote?

Can you give us a hint? like who the actress was or something?

hmm... well... seeing as how I've now forgotten the answer Roll Eyes Wink

I'll try to remember what this was all about then I'll give a hint.

Would you possibly be referring to Sen John McCain who, about France, said (with no reference to a specific actress);

"They remind me of an aging movie actress in the 1940s who's still trying to dine out on her looks,"

"The cynical role France is playing proves that you cannot be a great nation unless you have great purpose, and they've lost their purpose."

That's the one.
