Aha! They finally realized what they were good at - appeasement.

The shoehorning of every social problem into the Marxist model continues... Film at 11:00.

LOL. That is going to help in 20 years...

Stupid frogs, caught in the same socialist bucket, heated by the subtle flames of unbridled multiculturalism.

Y'all are dead meat.

France gets tough by asking, "HOW HIGH?"

This is shameful.

[flashbunny]

plus "le midnight basketball" will be introduced next month.

[elmer fudd]

You just knew they'd find some way to surrender.

Ah, yes, French thought.

Problem: In a word, socialism. Excessive government entanglement stagnates the economy, leading to massive unemployment. This makes people unhappy.

Solution: More government, of course. No word on where the tax revenues to pay for this are to come from. Perhaps one of those big, profit-laden corporations that France has lying around can fund these extortion payments. Because, y'know, French companies make profits after taxes.

Did I say "extortion payments?" I meant "tributes." Oops, make that "blood money."

Could they wave their white flag any higher?

What happens when the Muslims riot because these measures aren't enough? And after that? It's only a matter of time before unconditional surrender is announced.

[burzum]

Hmm... I wonder if the French government is going to also give handouts to the people who had their cars torched or their property destroyed by these *freedom fighters*? Somehow I doubt it.
