that's another thing--mimes---who on earth could consider that entertaining? how why??????????

In response to the now famous question, "What's wrong with France?" one writer noted:
"Two words. Jerry Lewis."

Yes Ivan, the Bulldog of GB VS the french chihuahua. Isn't that somewhat an unfair fight? Not satisfied, the french chihuahua is going after the American eagle as well. But in a barking contest, the shrill chihuahua may not be in as much dis-advantage.

"“It’s not a game, and it’s not over,” Jean-Pierre Raffarin, the French Prime Minister, shot back yesterday. Thus the war of words between dovish France and hawkish America grew more rancorous."

It's not a game, and it was over for the French in 1940.

Middle America, egged on by hostile television networks and editorial writers, has been whipped into a rage against what is perceived as betrayal by the vain and preening French or, as they are now being characterised, “cheese-eating surrender monkeys”.

BS!!! Al Bundy and I hated the french when hating the french wasn't cool!!! We don't NEED a reason beyond their being ingrates, snobs and french!!

Going to war without the French, is like going hunting without an acordian.

...the vain and preening French or, as they are now being characterised, “cheese-eating surrender monkeys”...

That's not a characterization that's a description.

France: A country where every woman between the ages of 16 and 65 must have at the ready a white bed sheet to surrender with as the men cower in fear.

[CARepubGal]

It is good to hate the French!
