"I doubt he'll be coming to the ranch any time soon,"

Yep, with year round "open season" on weasels, his safety couldn't be guaranteed.

While I might quibble with the style of reporting here, it's still a good thing. The French press, at least, understands that Chirac has caused a great rift.

And perhaps the French public will begin to wonder whether it was worth it.

A ranch is a dangerous place for weasels, accidents could happen.

Bush: Chirac won't soon visit ranch

Dang. And I already had visions of President Bush sitting around with Chirac and telling him: "Sheeeyit, Jacque, I'm tellin ya that's Texas champagne you're drinking there. It just smells like horse piss."

[lilylangtree]

Well, if Chirac ever goes to the presidential ranch, hopefully one of the secret service agents will put a burr under his saddle when he goes horseback riding. But don't tell PETA. The agency might construe that action as inhumane nevermind what happens to Chirac.

["Hopefully, the past tensions will subside and the French won't be using their position within Europe to create alliances against the United States, or Britain or Spain or any of the new countries that are the new democracies in Europe," he added.]

Dream on, wet dreamers.

[Grampa Dave]

Actually, GW invited ChIraq to visit the ranch to help GW clear out the current tumbleweed crop and ChIraq refused to come help GW in this task.

GW would have used a rope and tied ChIraq by the feet and then attached the other end of the rope to the trailer hitch on GW's F250 four wheel drive pickup.

Then GW would have dragged ChIraq around at 40 MPH to clear out the current tumbleweed crop.

ChIraq in a typical French snit, said No! So ChIraq will not be visiting GW's ranch.

[GretchenEE]

This is ripe.

"Hopefully, the past tensions will subside and the French won't be using their position within Europe to create alliances against the United States, or Britain or Spain or any of the new countries that are the new democracies in Europe," he added.

Sit up and take notes, France. You don't really want to find out how painful that course of action would be, do you?

said Bush spokesman Ari Fleischer, denying a New York Times report.

NYT has been getting it wrong quite a bit lately.

The French are useless. Forget them.

I hear Rummy invited Chirac to GTMO's annual Toad Stomp though.
