Uh, schaketo, you forgot to add the Statue of Liberty to your list of French products to boycott. And don't forget milk. Milk is pasteurized, and we all know where Louis Pasteur was from.

Please. This whole boycott thing is getting a little too...oh, what's the word...stupide.

Get off your high horse. The Statue of Liberty was a gift, France sees no money from it these days.

Does Louis Pasteur's estate still get patent royalties for the pasteurization process? If so and you are so inclined, go to Whole Foods or another grocer where you can buy unpasteurized milk.

If you don't want to participate in a boycott that is your business but must you ridicule those who do choose to spend their money elsewhere?

Oh ... I get it ... you're one of the more sophisticated and enlightened ones. Similar to how the french see themselves. Here's a thought. You don't like it or agree with it ... don't do it.

America's great, isn't it?
