France?

...hope to use the occasion to point out that France has long been - and will remain - a friend of the United States.

Well then France, start acting like it.

And when you do, I will refrain from calling ya'all cheese eating surrender monkeys.

"France wants to provide an ``extra welcome'' to American visitors this year,..."

They will only spit in your food once.

"It's like a family. There are conflicts, but in the end one remains a family. You stay together," said de la Taille, who once lived in the United States and whose daughter was born there.

Look folks, this wasn't a little tiff over trade, this was france endangering American lives by activily creating dissention in the UN, by working harder than they've ever worked before to derail things in the UN, and support a regime that was killing, torturing, and maiming their own people. Not merely a few political dissidents, but average people who live in fear every day of their lives. It's not merely the french government that did this, it was the average frenchman who totally supported their government.

No, we're not family and we won't forget.

The uber-costly French clothier Hermes no longer flies France's flag above its high-profile flagship outlet on Madison Avenue here.

This tie is a mere $108.

Ha, the ban is working! Sorry France, a few roses aren't going to bring you back into the fold. You've been disinherited, kicked out, and shuned by the family. At the very least you might consider this some tough love.

C'mon, you know the place! They are in the axis of weasels, and they provide safe harbor for all of the world's most revolting people: terrorists, murderer's, pedophiles, etc.

Roman Polanski, James Dewayne Nivette, Ayatollah Khomeni, Ira Einhorn, and on and on.....

To Americans in Paris: Go pay respects to one of the last honorable Frenchmen. LaFayette is over at the Picpus Cemetery.

"Le trop grand empressement qu'on a s'aquitter d'une obligation est une espece d'ingratitude." (Rochefoucauld 1613-1680) He described very well the present French eagerness to please Americans. Here's a translation: "Excessive eagerness in paying off an obligation is a kind of ingratitude." Touche'
