In my experience in France, they seem more arrogant than stupid, perhaps ignert sounds arrogant when spoken in French. After all, it is not what you say in French, but how it sounds.

Either way, at the breast of Paris, the heart of Old Europe will no longer be the Sacre Coeur(sp?). That will become just another gilded mosque, as in the Holy Land invasion.

Then maybe, I will go to Nice so I can look at nude sunbathers again.

If you go to Nice make sure to go to the marine park there. The head killer whale trainer was a friend of ours when she worked at Seaworld, Orlando (that assumes she's still in Nice). Her name is Lindsey Rubincam. I'll guarantee you that she doesn't work with the whales topless, however. Nice to look at in her wet suit, though, and what she and whales do when they perform the stunts is truly beautiful to watch.

We will also keep in mind those whose egos allow them to face the "appeasement" lesson, and await the days when they take the helm.

Meanwhile...time to send the deserving to their rooms without dinner. Perhaps then the voting public will decide to go with what works, and abandon their misguided, shameful, and dangerous posturing.

My point is to overturn the idiots with our propaganda, to be more blunt. They NEED it! PR is everything, and the French need some opposition programming!

I am all for it. I see your point and suggestion now...but how do we do it ? We DO like French things, and traditional culture...of course we do. We don't treat them like ignorant foreigners...the way WE get treated there...but when they BITE...we break their teeth. "Don't Tread on Me" is for real...and who we really are. We give warning, a request for peace...but then we bite, and bite HARD.

Sorry for the delay in responding...I was taking a shower.

All our $$ are belong to us.
All your wine and stinky cheese are belong to you.

The French have been behaving badly for a few decades now. Their lack of support for the war has just been the straw that broke the camel's back. They have earned our distain.
