Only this time, maybe we don't want to buy from the beurs, who are presently burning synagogues in France. Ladies, burn your Louis Vuitton, and buy a Coach bag!

I'm already boycotting French products and have been for a couple of months. I've ordered my skin care products from a French company since the mid 80's--they are far superior to anything made here--even the really high end stuff. However, I'm making do with the mostly worthless American made stuff. I am hoping that some American company will get serious about making a quality product soon.

In the meantime, dry, wrinkly skin is a mighty small price to pay for our freedom and the added safety of our troops.

Coach has moved its entire manufacturing set-up outside the U.S. while planning to open 29 new stores here. Spanish and Italian leather goods are much nicer and you can sometimes find beautiful examples at T.J. Maxx. I usually buy handbags and such from local craftspeople for myself and as gifts. The workmanship is excellent and the leather not the usual industrial type leather of Coach. I think that some people need to cover themselves with labels in order to feel okay.
