"It's not funny because if fuels resentment"

After what the French did to us, we're not allowed to resent them? Gimme a break. A few weeks ago, they desecrated the graves of American and British soldiers buried over there. How offensive is that? I'd say we're entitled to a little resentment.

In a word... NO.

In six words, not for a very long time.
And the weasels should understand one thing clearly, we Americans will decide when the French have redeemed themselves.
Forget ex-patriate perverts and American neurotic actors.

Don't call us, we'll call you.

France should now have the good manners to shut up and wait to be invited to the club of its betters.

Levitte is so frustrated he actually wrote a letter to Congress and the Bush administration accusing the government of condoning a smear campaign against the French.

Maybe the US and Europe are so far apart that it's best to simply part as allies. He doesn't even understand that the government doesn't control or have the authority to silence our comedians.

"It's not funny because if fuels resentment," Levitte said

Well, I've already posted this one, and haven't thought up anything new, but here goes:

What's the most famous French battlefield speech?

I think we can escape while they're raping the women.

Not me. I used to buy $20 a month in L'Oreal products. Not anymore. I know it's not much, but every little bit adds up. And the occasional bottle of Beaujolais is also a thing of the past. The President can kiss all he wants, I'll not bow to them.

As far as I am concerned, their losing $500 million is just a drop in the ocean.

And let's make that permanent. I don't intend to go back.

I wasn't aware that she had much of anything from which to retire.

Actually she does. She reinvented herself as a country singer and did rather well.

"I don't want to freedom kiss my wife," says Allen says in a new ad spot. "I want to French kiss her."

Seeing as how his current wife is his former wife's adopted daughter (and was his "stepdaughter" at the very least) when he began his affair with her (at age 17, I think)... I just don't think that it's a good idea to run a PR campaign in a way that will bring up images of him with his "wife".

How much of that $500million was just on contracts with Saddam alone?

Wasn't she a nun and an actress and a mother in there somewhere too?

>"I don't want to freedom kiss my wife. I want to French kiss her." - Woody Allen

Is anyone else repulsed by the idea of this horny geek french-kissing his adopted daughter? What happens when Woody has kids with his wife/daughter? Is he going to date his daughters (grand-daughters) as well? And why would France want an avowed child molestor to represent their country...well I suppose I can see why after all.

Yes, just because they have a state-run media doesn't mean Karl Rove writes Leno's jokes.

Go Thrasher's!

2 signs how deep the "resentment" is running against France:

1. People in SOUTH DAKOTA are boycotting French wine.

2. On That '70's Show, I saw a scene where Fez is contemplating where he should move if he gets deported. He says, "Hmmm, France . . ." ((thinks a second)) Then he says, "&%$# France!"

No laugh track needed. Live laughter will do.

Didn't Woody get into some trouble for Freedom Kissing his wife's daugher?

I had some trouble grabbing this. I hope it shows up.

Mr. and Mrs. Woody Allen:

Thanks for the picture. This is the first time I have seen them together. Woody Allen is NOT funny.
