If you are not informed about this stuff, you will be made sick. If you are informed, you will be made mad, all over again.

President Bush May Send Up To 5 Marines For French Assistance

President Bush has authorized the Joint Chiefs to begin drawing up a battle plan to pull France's ass out of the fire again. Facing an apparent overwhelming force of up to 400 pissed-off teenagers Mr. Bush doubts France's ability to hold off the little piss ants much longer. "Hell, if the last two world wars are any indication, I would expect France to surrender any day now", said Bush. Joint Chiefs head, Gen. Peter Pace, warned the President that it might be necessary to send up to 5 Marines to get things under control. The general admitted that 5 Marines may be overkill but he wanted to get this thing under control within 24 hours of arriving on scene. He also stated he was having a hard time finding even one Marine willing to help those ungrateful bastards out for a third time, but thought that he could persuade a few women Marines to do the job before they went on pregnancy leave.

President Bush asked Gen. Pace to get our Marines out of there as soon as possible after order was restored. He also reminded Gen. Pace to make sure the Marines do not take tooth brushes, soap, razors, or deodorant with them. The less they stand out, the better.

In an unrelated matter, President Bush told reporters that he was considering a "Flu for Oil" Program to ease our country's energy problem and prevent the upcoming pandemic. Nobody had a clue as to what the hell he was talking about.

"Rioters pelted police with stones in the historic heart of Lyon, and youths rammed a burning car into a center for retirees in southern France in a 17th night of urban violence."

Yeah, major lull, alright. [ \ sarcasm ]

The AP sneaks this in as the LAST paragraph. Belgium is next?

"Neighboring Belgium registered its worst night in a week of attacks on vehicles apparently inspired by French events, with 29 cars, trucks and buses torched around the country, the government said Sunday."

Is "Major Lull" any relation to "Captain Dreyfus"?

Each a French scandal?

Either that or it's a cease-fire while France negotiates its final surrender...

Our citizens have access to riot & looting "responders" and I hope they come into use when needed.

I believe they both report to "General Malaise".

Paris was calm, but surrounded by rioting.

It's convenient to have the clickable images on each thread, to go back and research.

If you don't like them, ignore them. They aren't spam in my opinion.

Backhoe maintains a lot of information on various topics that makes life easier for all of us here at FR.
