LOL. Though my frog, er, French is nonexistent, my favorite phrase is something like: "Parse que les Americans, tu ne parle d'Alemande"

Translated, supposedly: "Because of the Americans, you don't speak German"...

I believe it would be 'Parce que des Americains, tu ne parle pas allemand.' Or more accurately, 'En raison des...'

Point being, that is a cool phrase.

Exactly! We've pulled those snail-eaters' chestnuts out of the fire in WWI, in WWII, and in VN (a couple hundred starving unarmed Jews in Warsaw held off the Nazi army for longer than the French army did).

If it weren't for the US, the French would be eating bratwurst and goose-stepping down the Champs-Elysees singing the "Deutschland uber Alles" every year on Hitler's birthday.

The French need to bow down and kiss the Uncle Sam's feet instead of feeding us a ration of sh!t.
