Wow - good one!

I'll second that!!! Thanks, Jarhead!!
This was a good read. Awkward meter in some places, but well done! I loved the last line.
bttt
Love it! Just wish there were lines about UN bribes. Wonder if they noticed that someone bombed the Indonesian embassy in Paris last night? Probably not. After all, it's not French.
French are chickens. They gave up easily without a fight. It cost so many American lives to retake their land from Hitler.
British RAF fought Hitler's air force along the English channel until Germans gave up.
I'd seen so many movies with script, "English to the right, French to the left!"
poetry pong
HEHEHEHEHE! GREAT POEM!
It's sad that the French forget that they have their freedoms today because of AMERICANS. Thanks for helping us Chirac...why don't you go visit Normandy and try to remember why YOU are free? My great uncle was there and if he were alive today, I can't imagine what his thoughts of France would be...Sad.
A good laugh ping!
Very good!
Good poem!
Sometimes I wonder if it's not time to take all our soldiers out of their French cemetaries and bring them home. Really, think of that - so many of our young men died that it wasn't even practical to allow them to come home one last time. Mothers and wives didn't even get a casket to grieve over. That must have been hard on them.
Yes, I'd like the cemetary to stand as a reminder, but the French are never going to get it through their thick skulls. I know this is a pipe dream, and certainly I mean no disrespect to the soldiers, but I wish we could do something. Our monuments have been desecrated there already. What will happen when the muslims take over?
I guess I have to remember that the body is just a vessel and their souls are with God.
France says report's bribe claims are bid to smear Chirac
I'm new and do not know how to do that
Excellent... Should be published...
I like it.
Thank you, I saved this on my hard drive.
