"It chills the bone when the French government and so many of its citizens steadfastly try to undermine Bush, even sneer at him, when so many of them were saved by the nation he leads - with the greatest band of brothers on earth."

My uncle landed at Omaha Beach and battled Nazis through snow-covered fields all across France. As they marched through the streets of Paris, two little French girls came running up to him and handed him a lady's brooch pin, an Ivory elephant. (Wouldn't the libs hate that!) The crowds cheered and called out to the soldiers, "We love you...Thank you." He gave me that treasured pin, which I keep in the gun safe.

And you think your uncle battled Nazis across France in order that the French would not be able to sneer at the American President? Or pursue their own self-interests as they define them?
