Are you ever going to change your French tagline?
No one knows what it is saying.
I’ve noticed there is a strong vein of self loathing amongst the fruits and nuts of both the left and right. Birds of a feather and all that...

The blame America first, last and always crowd are the worst.
He looks perpetually jet-lagged...or is that a Spicolli impression?
