Count me in...

Is that the complete address? If we each sent him a couple of bucks it could add up.

LOL...we all different ways of protesting the senseless obstruction of the left. Thank you Mr. Bjerre!

I read a story yesterday about a Frenchman whining because the American owner of the American bar the Frenchman once decided to patronize once was less than warm and fuzzy to him (the Frenchman was served though)

I suggest we don't hold our breath waiting to see popular media headlines blaring THOUSANDS OF ESTABLISHMENTS REFUSE TO SERVE GERMANS, FRENCH! or BARS, PIZZARIAS WORLDWIDE JOIN TO PROTEST PROTESTORS!!any time soon.

Knighthawk....because you are closer....can you call him for us...and thank him..

[RobFromGa]

good find, that looks like him...

[tracer]

And it's "No soup for you!!" in Manhattan.....

[Dog]

Can we get this thread put in Breaking News...

[Michael81Dus]

This is irrational and childish. He´s (at least verbally) discriminating those French and Germans who´d like to stand with the "coalition of the willing". And I doubt that many French of Germans travelled to that island to buy his pizzas... :-)

[knighthawk]

I already thought of sending him a card.

Frenchmen have "a lifetime ban here," Bjerre told The Associated Press. "Their attitude toward the United States will never change."

If he gets to Dallas Texas (and doesn't melt from the heat), he's got a beer on me.

[PhiKapMom]

I think Ken5050 had a fantastic idea!

[Dog]

Michael.....this guy is showing more cojones than the whole country of France has..

I wish there were more like him..

[A Texan]

This guy rocks!!!

[RobFromGa]

I'll bet if we sent him patriotic US postcards or something he could display in his pizza parlor, he'd like those as well.

I'm so glad to hear that Denmark has been returning to the world of sanity recently -- might just book a vacation there.

[A Texan]

I'm in Dallas too, I'll buy the second round.

The Danes bravely resisted Nazi occupation, many Danes warned the Jews about impending deportations in time for almost all Danish Jews to flee to Sweden.

[Dubya]

Count me in. What would be something good to write on a letter to him. I am not good at writting.

[SMEDLEYBUTLER]

This is irrational and childish.

No it's principled. Unlike the selling of components to Iraq necessary for the fabrication of WMD which the French and Germans don't have a problem doing. Aage Bjerre is choosing principle over money whereas the French and Germans are choosing money over principle. Aage Bjerre has discriminating taste. Bravo Zulu to him.
