We found the opposite. In October, no one in Paris ever broached the subject of U.S. policy toward Iraq. Nor in Brittany.
It was in southern and central France---the Dordogne and Loire regions---where we ran into the anti-American sentiments. Mostly it was people sitting at tables next to us in retaurants, one was a woman at her news stand. They would just butt in and start telling us George Bush is "dangeroux" or "Americans just don't understand how the world works.
I like to think that today those people are left wondering what world they were living in....Rummy would call it the "Old World". I just hope they're saying: "Je pense que je suis abusif".

We moved back to the states last summer and the last time I went to France was about a year ago. I just found the people in Alsace friendlier than those in Paris. We saw some real loonies in Paris. More than you would think. What does your French phrase mean? I don't speak French.
