ROTFLMAO!
Note to Madeleine: What rift with Europe? A quick review of the facts reveals that Britain stood with us, Poland stood with us, Spain stood with us, Italy stood with us, etc., etc. In fact, the majority of European countries will be eligible to bid on these contracts. What "Europe" are you speaking of, the Axis of Weasels? Oh my, we sure wouldn't want to do anything that could upset our dear friends, France and Germany, now would we?
Stupid, ugly and treasonous is no way to go through life, Maddy.
