Uh, huh. Why should the next four years be any different from the previous four hundred?

France is not to be trusted at any time, on any issue. The British have learned this over 1,000 years of acrimonious history, but it still comes as a shock to see how badly the French can behave, with their unique mixture of shortsighted selfishness, long-term irresponsibility, impudent humbug and sheer malice. Americans are still finding out--the hard way--that loyalty, gratitude, comradeship and respect for treaty obligations are qualities never exhibited by French governments. All they recognize are interests, real or imaginary. French support always has to be bought. What the Americans and British now have to decide is whether formal alliances that include France as a major partner are worth anything at all, or if they are an actual encumbrance in times of danger.

Today Paul Harvey made a funny remark: He said that President Bush was going to nominate Randy Moss as Ambassador to France!

[F.J. Mitchell]

France can kiss our Chirac!!!!!! Ouch! My rectum is reminding me that it has been offended by that comparison.

No thanks, France is inconsequential on the world stage.

[America's Resolve]

France won't exist as a recognizable entity by the end of this century. It'll just be another province in the European Caliphate. why should we invest the time or money into a dying people?

Sure. Bring us the head of Jacques Chirac, his entire Cabinet, the scum who were making deals in the Oil-for-Food scandal, the heads of the companies that continued to sell arms and parts to Iraq as we (yet again) went to war, and anyone who thinks Jerry Lewis is still funny.

Then we'll consider it.
