Here we go again: France undermines Bush at UN

Union Leader ^ | 9/24/03

[DustyMoment]

Ya know, I have to wonder if Chirac's fax receives the weekly DNC talking points?? If I hadn't read his name associated with the lying lies he was telling, I could have sworn that they came from the mouth of at least one of the 10 dwarves.

France is our enemy. We need to continue to boycott french products and we need to understand that france stands with Saudia Arabia, Syria, North Korea and other advisaries.

[gunnedah]

We all know where France stands and they will never be moved as long a the Democrats in America keep defending them.
Americas problem comes from Democrats so eagerly trying to buy friends and taking political contributions from our enemies.
America is disenegrating from within thanks to the loyal Democrat Party and their quest for power. They are moving us forward to the point of almost surrendering portions of the US mainland.

[Miss Marple]

Personally, I think he gets his talking points from Clinton.

In fact, I think that the veto at the UN was orchestrated by Clinton, who couldn't conceive that Bush would act without UN approval.

[freeperfromnj]

I just caught the end of a segment on Fox & Friends (didn't catch the guest's name). He said we should reconsider France's status as a permanent member on the UN Security Council and give that spot to Japan. Sounds like a good idea to me.

[Always Right]

In fact, I think that the veto at the UN was orchestrated by Clinton, who couldn't conceive that Bush would act without UN approval.

Except that Clinton acted without the UN approval in Kosovo. The Clinton and liberals are spinning hypocripcy.

[Miss Marple]

It doesn't matter what he did in Kosovo. His perception was that Bush wouldn't act.

[paguch]

There is no doubt the Democrats are taking the approach of the French. The Democrats have not been severely punished for their lack of concern for National security.

Many entire groups of Americans are complacent. Hillary Clinton supports outrageous Palestinian comments, the Jewish people shower her with support. Bill Clinton interferes in Israel's elections so he can force submission. More showers.

Democrats deny Blacks an opportunity for an education but say we will make someone give you a job. They vote 90% Democrat. When blacks quit acting like pigeons, eating the peanuts the Dems throw them they will get ahead. Condi Rice went to school and took what she wanted and they resent her. Blacks better realize that Ted Kennedy will never meet them in their school, their hospital or retirement. He has his own segregated plan.

[Havoc]

The Dems are socialists. They're probably sharing talking points with other socialist regimes - not just the french.
Of course, they would argue that the same ideology doesn't make them the same fundamentally, I'm sure lol

[randita]

A Security Council who makes 14 Resolutions concerning Iraq and fails to enforce a one of them should NOT be expanded, it should be disbanded. It is nothing but a paper tiger.

[Coop]

France is our enemy. We need to continue to boycott french products and we need to understand that france stands with Saudi Arabia, Syria, North Korea and other adversaries.

Amen to that. What was Madeleine's coined phrase - rogue regime or something like that?

[Redwood71]

One word: socialists

[xzins]

I wish just once that Pres. Bush would take the gloves off with France.

Have Peggy Noonan or someone "sensitive" get with someone hard-nosed like Wolfowitz and come up with an acceptable "kick-ass" speech against France.

In fact, imho, it would be wonderful bump for Bush's popularity at a time when he needs a bump. Americans in fly-over country love a pro-America dustup.

[gaspar]

Expell France: In the last ten years it has abetted murderous dictators in Africa and the Middle East and has intervened militarily and without the blessing of the UN in Chad, Central African Republic and Ivory Coast. Japan would be the better alternative, but to rub salt into the wound, I would suggest Nigeria in, France out.

[bushfamfan]

Bush looks like a fool smiling and carrying on with Chirac in the photos. Bush needs to get more vocal like Chirac when Chirac is continuing on with his nasty talk, but Bush continues to excuse it.

[1Old Pro]

New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman last Thursday labeled France America’s “enemy.” It was a precisely accurate assessment.

I'm glad to see Friedman getting on the bandwgon.

[GreyWolf]

IMO, France is headed for another Waterloo by screwing around with this President.

[SF Republican]

I think the security council should be rearranged with the Brits and France turning over to a EU chair and then bring in India for the other chair; the largest democracy in the world and asian
