Here's how Cavuto signed off today, on his "Common Sense" segment!
Cavuto On Business ^ | 3/27/03 | Cavuto

Posted on 03/27/2003 5:38:24 PM PST by darin2risk

Never mind that France wanted nothing to do with getting rid of Saddam and wants everything to do with rebuilding Iraq after Saddam. Here's the kicker: France says Britain and the U.S. should not have a role -- it's up to the United Nations to decide.

So, let me see if I've got this right. France offered not one soldier, not one plane, not one tank, or ship, convoy or grenade. Not one missile. Not one drop of blood. And yet, France is going to decide the new Iraq?

Well pardon me, Pepe, but I don't think so.

I don't know what amazes me more: How callous the French are, or how arrogant they are. People are still dying in Iraq and they are already tripping over their corpses to cash in on Iraq?

France couldn't lift a hand to a rifle to help us, but is more than willing to go for a few of their precious Euros to screw us?

We fight and die to free a people whose suffering you more than happily ignored. And they saunter in to set up shop so that they can merrily profit?

Please tell me the French word for chutzpa!

France schemes to sell brie, after we've given blood?

France plots business storms, while our guys are choking in sandstorms?

France notifies the world they're ready to do deals, while we have servicemen in this country notifying families of killed soldiers they're ready to do funerals?

What the French lack in guts, they more than make up for in nerve.

France wouldn't help the Iraqi people when they needed rescuing, but is more than willing to dive in and take the money because maybe France needs rescuing.

The French are as morally bankrupt as I hope soon they will be financially bankrupt.

Pity the poor country that calls you a friend and realizes the hand it's holding, is only digging for spare change.

You sicken me."

Excellent post!
I saw this on Fox and was off my chair cheering and clapping.
I was hoping somebody would post the transcript verbatim.
I would only add that the look af disgust on Cavuto's face as he looked into the camera and spoke his words was priceless.
Excellent!

Yep, Neil Cavuto is quickly becoming the "go to" guy, as far as I'm concerned. I remember when he first started on Fox and, having never heard of him and seeing his youthful appearance and everything, I thought, "Where'd they come up with this guy?" Well, kudos once again to Roger Ailes. Cavuto is the man.

Tasting Notes:
Rich Burnished Mahogany

Nose:
Balanced rich dried fruits & Spanish oak wood spices (ginger & cinnamon). Sweet with summer fruits and light nuttiness.

Palate:
Dried fruit, resinous, wood spices with a hint of smoke.

Finish:
Lingering wood, spicy, fruity with light smoke.

Much, much better than Cognac of any kind.

F--K THE FRENCH!

There are several good Californians out there. I am, however partial to the Italians, Mondoro make a sparkling Asti that will knock your socks off. They use the same process, just not in the Champagne region of France.

France (aka that shitty little country), Turkey, Russia and possibly Germany may very well be in for some dire economic times.

Yup, we've got two bottles of it. They first make sherry then re-use the same casks to make scotch. You can really taste the sherry; it's one of the smoothest, most unique single-malt scotches I've ever tasted. Fantastic stuff.

Cognac? What's that?

I apologize if this has already been posted, but hasn't Neil Cavuto been battling cancer & MS? He really hit a homerun today!

Wow. I hope not. My father's aunt has MS, and it's a terrible disease. Are you sure about Cancer? Unless it's something like prostate or skin cancer, chemotherapy would really do a number on him. I know someone on chemo, and there's no way a person could do a job like Cavuto's while on it. It really knocks you over.

If it's any consolation, I do a long-distance bike ride for MS every year. He'll be one more person I'll be riding for this September.

The "Little Red Hen" must be missing from french bedtime stories.

That is just too perfect. This is exactly what the French need a good dose of....thousands of copies of this Fable sent to each and everyone of its politicos. And yeah....France needs to reap what is has sown...

A worsening economy, no longer thriving on the tortured backs of the Iraqi commeners (who never saw a penny of it anyway), and no longer profiting off sells here do to American demand.

And a big fat zero in the after Iraq profit snaring so many UN cowards want to cash in on so badly they are willing to press this point home while Americans and Brits and Irish and others have citizens dying in the desert, fighting the good fight.

If you really want to go out of this world, try the 30. It's absolutely un-frickin' believable. Not sure where you're at, but there is a bar in the bottom floor of the Westin Copley Place in Boston that serves the most extensive selection of Single Malts ever assembled in one place, as well as a terrific selection of Ports (Portugal being an ally and all).

It's hard to get good scotch here in PA. There are *no* private liquor stores anywhere in the state. They're all state-owned. The effect is that everything costs 30% more and their selection is abysmal. We usually have to look in DE or MD to find anything really good, because stores in PA either won't stock it or won't order it. I've tried, and PA "state stores" are hopeless. My father has a bottle of the 24 that a friend of his brought from England. Wonderful stuff. It's defintely smoother than the 18 (though the 18 is no slouch by any means).

Can't you sneak into NY, or are you on the other end? I drove across PA once...it took me 6 HOURS. I live in Connecticut...in 6 hours I would be 3 states away.

As allways Cavuto just nailed it right on the head. Boy how I love this guy, and how novel and refreshing it is to hear some big cheese on TV saying that the black kettle is really just "black", no riffs and raffs, personal opinnion, etc.

Thank you, Neil, YOU ROCK!
