True to form.

You know while were at it, why don't we drop a few bombs on the frogs. If were going to do this, lets do it right.

[ladyinred]

These are our friends.
Poor President Bush, here he is criticised for being too nice, there he is criticised for being to mean! Sheesh!

[Cyber Liberty]

Oh goody. More advice on winning major conflicts from the Franco F***-faces.

[Truthfairy]

That took even less time than cynical me would have thought. I was guessing they would wait until we had pinpointed the perps so they would have known precisely who to surrender to. We've got a tough row to hoe in this war.

[Liberal Classic]

What would their reaction be to someone blowing up the Eiffel Tower? I bet they would be loaded for bear.

[jwfiv]

True to form? Yes. Le francais sans vertebrae. Wonder if they'll be denying us fly-over rights. We'll go into battle with MIGs flying alongside us before the Gauls join our crusade.

[Dog Gone]

This is good. If the French were supporting us enthusiastically it would be a DANGER signal.

I'm just so "glad" NATO is right there beside us. /sarcasm>

Any help will come from the Brits and probably the Eastern Europeans.

Sacré Dieu, comment je déteste les crapauds français.

(Dear God, how I hate the french toads.)

[Capitalist Eric]

POLITICAL leaders in France and Germany urged President Bush yesterday to avoid a belligerent response...

Belligerent response?

Like PISS OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was that belligerent enough?

As a pundit pointed out, this morning, "France has always been there, when they need us..."

Some things, never change.

Alain Richard, his defence minister, said the attacks were "not acts of war". I would consider this highly provacative. There are 5000+ people dead, about 60 hours have passed since the attack and key leaders in the French and German government are downplaying the incident. Important military and economic keystones of the US were damaged and destroyed and yet, they are downplaying the matter. I applaud GW's words on building coalitions, but there will come a point when we will need to decide if we act with purpose, and regardless of what the cheesemonkeys say. Sorry, but had to vent...

[jdege]

I don't know, they are right, in part.

The goal isn't to just hurt a lot of people. We've done that before and it's never done a hell of a lot of good.

The goal is to end the threat of international terrorism. That's going to take more than just bombing aspirin factories.

[BenF]

Let's not get down on the French, people. After all, I have a case of French rifles to sell. They're like new, they've only been dropped twice.

[BurkeanCyclist]

I think Bush needs to have a couple of foreign ambassadors in for a little talk.

[libordeath]

"Lionel Jospin, the French Prime Minister, said the Americans should be "reasonable" in their response. Alain Richard, his defence minister, said the attacks were "not acts of war"."

If not acts of war, what were they pray tell?

[cc2k]

I'm surprised. All of these official pronouncements from French officials. All talking about a potential war, and not one French official mentions surrendering.

Actually, it looks like they're advising us to surrender.

Let's not follow the French example in this war.

[truthkeeper]

Man, I'd better not say what's really on my mind in response to this garbage. Jim would ban me forever.
A disgusted BTTT.
