Summer's around the corner folks and of course they are concerned about the low percentage of American tourists (aka Les Imbeciles) that has plagued France since 2002. "Les Imbeciles" are spending money, you see, and the people are not happy. They might not respect us as people, but they sure respect(and need) our deep pockets.

actually, it's the opposite..the Euro/dollar exhange rate is killing French exports, even without the lack of American interest..and French are coming here in droves to shop and buy property..in NYC, over Christmas, it seemed like every other person on 5th avenue was speaking French..
