France's biggest problem is their inability to accept their total irrelevance in world affairs.

Bob's got a problem if he doesn't recognize the hostility among the frogs...when I was living in Rome, just after we invaded Iraq, it was standard practice for the frogs to move to another table once they heard me order my cafe' Americano...scum.

What france thinks is as important to the US as what Haiti thinks.

"France's biggest problem is their inability to accept their total irrelevance in world affairs." When it comes down to it. Jock-strap Chirac's attitude towards the US goes hand in hand with france's increasing Muslim population. To Islam, we (the US) are the 'evil' that they use to can unite their people so they don't have to look at themselves for the root of their problems.
Exact same thing Jock-strap is doing.

My guess is that the EU will make France the laughing-stock of Europe.

I hate Chirac. French politicians are amongst the most treacherous on the planet.

"One French intellectual described anti-Americanism to me as 'a cancer that is sweeping across the country.'"
Really? Well, France better hope the cure won't be a nuclear shot to the country's hateful & envious brain.

didja hear the joke about the old u.s. military veteran who visited paris, and was stopped by security at the airport?
"you americains should know now, monsieur, that you are required to show your passports when you enter france."
the old vet replies: "the last time i was in france i landed at omaha beach and there weren't any frenchmen around!"

Chirac is playing a smoke and mirrors game. He can't afford to have the attention focused on himself so he points and screams as a distraction.

"detested by the Left and considered an apostate on the Right, but may survive by bashing Uncle Sam."
A successful strategy proven by Gerhard Schroeder in his last election.
"That war was described as a plot by American capitalists to cheat Iraqis out of their oil in a lecture that would have done justice to a conspiracy-minded Internet blogger."
When is Bush going to let free all the info on France and Food for Oil, and their pre-war "diplomacy" against us? He kept it quiet before letting Kerry's francophilism score points.

Drop it at the foot of the Eiffel Tower! ..And I'm sure our Canadian friends to the north would help us load it, in turn for some cargo containers to box up the French scum in 'Cuc Caa P. of Q. to ship along with it.

The lone potential breath of fresh air viewed by internal critics is flamboyant populist Nicolas Sarkozy, who is resigning as finance minister to seek leadership of France's governing party and then perhaps run for president. Although Sarkozy is unabashedly pro-American, it has not hurt him so far. But his opponent is likely to be Chirac, still waving the bloody American shirt and still hard to beat. Seems like 2007 is the year that we get rid of Chirac and replace him with Sarkozy .. best way to do that is to ramp up the boycott.

This hallowed ground, above the beach at Normandy is the only land in France we should ever worry about again.
