John Forbes Kerry is not running for president here, but if he were, he would clinch the town's vote.

Just another reason to despise the french

France loves appeasers. This isn't news to me.

Fellow freepers: Please keep these "France shills for kerry" stories.

Oh, I do hope the rest of America hears that the cheese-eating surrender monkeys love Kerry. It's almost as good as reminding them that Al-Q/Bin Laden would want him to win the White House.

According to my linked article, the Germans destroyed the home at the time of "Liberation" - it was next to coastal defenses:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1080702/posts

Now this article says:

"...At La Sagesse retirement home, 95-year-old Pauline Briand remembers well Kerry's grandmother, who ate English biscuits, spoke fluent French, and walked a pair of corgis daily through the village. During the bleakest months of World War II, she picked up milk at the Briand farm. "Madame Forbes was very kind," said the tiny Breton as she finished an afternoon snack at the home, near St. Briac's town hall. "She was the same age as my mother-in-law, and they would chat. She spoke French very well." When Nazi troops occupied St. Briac, they destroyed the Forbes home..."

I'm curious...did Grandma Forbes sit out the war in France?

It takes a Britney to raise a village.


...or something like that.

In other news, Kerry carries Tehran, Pyongyang, and Havana.

...it cannot hurt that the Massachusetts Democrat summered as a child in this picturesque village, hugging Brittany's rocky shores.

Generally speaking, we common folk summer where we spring, fall, and winter. And we almost never use "summer" as a verb.

I'll bet Kerry would like to hug Brittany's Britney's rocky shores.

Who cares, as long as Ketchup Boy does the same in our next war? Perhaps Tuh-RAY-zah will even buy la belle France for him.

He wouldn't marry her, though.

With a net worth of only $100 milion, she's still $450 million short of being rich enough for Kerry.

"As Kerry burnished his credentials as a Vietnam War critic and fledgling politician in the '70s and '80s, Lalonde led an environmental campaign against French nuclear testing in the Pacific."

The Frogs didn't seem to have a problem with selling a nuclear a reactor to Saddam for "testing".
