Yes, FUCK FRANCE!!! The Greek way is probably what they would understand the best, since they have Saddam so far up their asses that they would have to have major surgery to extract him. So, Charlie, you hold them while I grease up the 'ol Ball Bat!

...Or maybe we should just let them have it dry, like they want to see America get it. Let's not be easy on them, either. It's the BIG end FIRST!

"Either you are with us...or you are with them." - George Bush.

Their problem is that the U.S. and Great Britain didn't want them to develop Atomic weapons, but they did it anyway.

You see, the problem is that they see NO threat because nobody has killed over 2,000 people in a terrorst attack on Paris yet.

What would have happened if the Al-Quada had done this?

I know what would have happened. The same thing that happened when the Nazis marched into Paris under the Arch de la Triumphe...

NOT A DAMNED THING!!!!!

From Bush's inaugural speech: "My fellow Americans, our long national nightmare of peace and prosperity is finally over."

Hi,

As a non-American do I get to have a say in all this?

To begin with I had a lot of respect with Pres. Bush II. The way he wangled the election to get into office was masterly.

And his destruction of the Taliban was nice work and decisive.

When he started on Sadam I couldn't really see where he was going with it or why but I guessed he knew what he was doing and waited for the revelation that would convince the world that he was ahead of the game.

Alas, it now appears that poor George has gone down a blind alley. He has a weak and unconvincing case for what he is doing.

Nobody really likes Sadam all that much but really! Is he worth losing American lives for? Or British, Spanish and Iraqi ones come to that.

Trouble is that now George has got himself between a rock and a hard place. He's damned if he fights and damned if he doesn't. And the longer he delays the more organised and more powerful the opposition grows.

To get into that situation was very poor politics. I'm afraid that poor old George is a bungling amateur adrift in a hard world.

The only option that George has now is to go to war and win it decisively and quickly. If he were to back down in the face of French and Russian opposition he would make the USA a laughing stock.

Never mind. He'll be out of office soon and I'm sure President Hilary will sort it all out and provide some real, well thought out leadership for the world. I'm looking forward to that. Don't you just love dominant, powerful women?

So the French ruined Canada, and make a mess of everything.

Gosh, wouldn't life be grand if we could just kill everybody who isn't just like us? Or at least own them?

Oh, wait, we tried that.

Yes, and that's probably the reason the french veto'ed...

Little piece of information I got hold off: This seems to be the first french UN-veto ever. While the russian hold the record with some hundreds or so I know that the US is at 76 times after all.

:tongueout

Well folks, if the French are the enemy, then those of us in America are fucked and far from home. And if we didn't look stupid before, the "freedomfries" makes us look like horses' asses. BTW, France boycotters, hope you don't drive a Nissan or Infiniti (owned by Renault).

"Freedom fries" looks even sillier from a British prospective, because we regard "French fries" as McDonald's for "potato chips".

Incidentally, have the 'get rid of the French' people remembered who gave the Statue of Liberty to the US in the first place?

Among ather things:

'French' fries are actually Belgian (http://uk.news.yahoo.com/030312/80/dva4m.html) .

If you are boycotting everything that came from France, give up your non-stick cookware (http://home.nycap.rr.com/useless/teflon/).

Also, no more Cajun (http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com ... sacad1.htm) cooking for you.

And God forbid you should need any of

these (http://www.fl-institut.com/french_inventions.htm) items.

One last thing...... (well actually two).

Madame Curie (http://www.aip.org/history/curie/)

Louis Pasteur (http://ambafrance-ca.org/HYPERLAB/PEOPLE/_pasteur.html)

And perhaps give up your computer as well...... (after all, some French people were involved in the maths and discoveries that lead to them.)

Now can we all calm down a bit?

What a load of cobblers!

The name 'french fries' does not indicate either the origin or the inventor of them.

In classical cusine they are known as 'pomme frite a la francais' - in other words 'fried in the french way'. It does not mean that the french invented the dish.

So what is the french way? Deep fried without any coating. In the same way, 'frite a l'anglais' indicates that there is a batter coating. Something 'lyonnaise' indicates there there is onion in it and 'provencale' indicates marrow and tomatoes - this does not mean that onions only come from Lyon or tomatoes and marrows from Provence!

Guess who qualified as a chef many centuries ago?

That is all.

LOL

How about some AMERICAN things to be renamed.?

Rumor has it that all the restaurants in Paris, France have changed every instance of "American Cheese" appearing on their menus to...

"IDIOT CHEESE"
