Oh, right, well anyway he apologized for his statement yesterday. And US Ambassador to Germany Daniel Coats said Rumsfeld just slipped.

If it wasn't for us: The Canadians would be speaking French exclusively; The French would be speaking German; The Germans would be speaking Russian; The Russians would be speaking Chinese and the Chinese would be speaking Japanese. Annnnd if it weren't for our good will, the Japanese would be speaking American instead of just thinking American. Annnnd if it weren't for our influence the Egyptian, Jordanians and Syrians would all be speaking Hebrew. The sun never sets on the empire of liberty and every dirt peasant who happily says whatever he pleases about America in his own language, better pray and thank Almighty God for it.

Brilliant! Bravo! Post of the year! Three cheers for Theophilus! Salute!

"And US Ambassador to Germany Daniel Coats said Rumsfeld just slipped."

Riiiiight ... isn't that a little like saying, "Ooops, I didn't know the gun was loaded"?

I've apologized for things that I've said that have been cruel and probably shouldn't have been said ...
... but that doesn't mean that they weren't the truth.

Nein, Ich war niemals ein Rhein Weasel. (No, I´ve never been a Rhine Weasel)

If you're not with us... you're with the terrorists. Seems like this should really apply to our "friends" as well.

You belong on the "Savage Nation". Next you will be calling for the bombing of Paris or Berlin. Why don't you gather up a few pals from this thread and head over there with all the guns and ammo you can muster. No punishment could be too good for those French/German terrorists and your group is just the one to meet out "justice" to them. Or would you feel safer doing so by dropping bombs on the hapless "frogs" and "krauts" from an airplane safely flying at high altitude? LOL.

Quoting Michael Savage for the Irishman:

"If it weren't for war, you'd be a bar of soap."

that's just another damned government program. The private sector can handle this...

True. But I think we could use a few more New Yorkers!

I don't know what a French ecology is, but I'm sure it smells.

Good for you! (P.S. Buy California wines. They're better anyway.)

Since the Spaniards have been so nice to us as of late, let me suggest a fine Rioja to go with yor next meal.

The sad thing is, I was a major customer of German Riesling until recently. Thankfully, both Upstate New York and Texas have been producing some fine ones as of late.

The Stars and Stripes would fly over every European capitol if Americans had acted like Germans. The Nazi "Bent Cross" would fly there if Americans had acted like the French.
