France is no longer an ally of the United States and the NATO alliance "must develop a strategy to contain our erstwhile ally or we will not be talking about a NATO alliance" the head of the Pentagon's top advisory board said in Washington Tuesday...

And thank you for your "French history for Dummies."

Pop out from behind a tree and yell "Boo!"

The pleasure is all mine.

I make it a point to post it on every French thread.

It was a great day yesterday, I posted it 5 different times:)

"conséquences graves" [Frech fo Serious Consequences] actually means being forced to drink German Wine (sorry Micheal81Dus!!).

> Ah yes, the Jew-baiters. Every time I see PJB on the telly I expect every other phrase to include the words "Jewish" and "bankers". The guy's a flaming anti-Semite, as is Lew Rockwell, another racist ass-clown. <

Wow! Exactly the kind of neo-McCarthyite smear I've come to expect from the Left.

I guess you repeat a Big Lie often enough (PJB's an anti-Semite) and even conservatives will start to buy into it.

> Well, I would say that, by including the word "thinking" in your description of Pat Buchanan and Lew Rockwell, you have defeated the entire premise of your arguments. <

Yes, I guess they're part of the "extra chromosome" Right that Algore talked about.

"What matters to France is that they matter."

Exactly on target.

[Ditto]

Pun intended?

No --- that would be the Greeks ;~))

For the frogs I should have said that they'll come around because if they can't lick them, they might as well join them. ;~)

Yet another dumb frog move.

On the bright side, we got those Amazin' Cajuns outta the deal....:)

thanks, Karl.

i enjoy reading your posts for your insight. it must be hell being conservative in france.

i give folks in california grief for their unconstitutional gun laws and socialist idiot governor, too. i know they are somewhat stuck there... and it isn't fair.... as i associated you with your whacko marxist government.

i'm glad you don't let us America-First types deter you from posting here, and i apologize as well for my attacks in the past.

as for chirac... my last french language class was 35 years ago. i probably know enough to ask for a cold beer and a bathroom, but with my language skills, i'd probably end up with goat cheese and a barbershop.

regards.
