FoxNews ^ | Sept 16, 2003

Cavuto was discussing with Shirley Lee Jackson (D-TX) why the US should now get in bed with the French. Jackson is supporting the French view. As the discussion turned, the following brief exchange took place regarding French Fries/Freedom Fries.

Cavuto: "Did you ever call them Freedom Fries?"

Shirley Jackson (D-TX): "I never had the chance. I'm on a vegetable diet myself."

-------------------------------

Hey, Shirley. Fries are from potatoes. Potatoes are vegetables.

I think potatoes are tubers, not vegetables.

This is also the same person that asked if the Mars rover would take a picture of the Apollo flag.

How can the Left continue to vote for such complete morons?

I can't believe I'm about to offer a mild defense for Queen Jackson.

Tom, potatoes are often fried in grease made from animal fat.

(Now I have to pull a sheet over my head and lie still for several hours. I never want to be put in the position of defending this bimbo ever again.)

Isn't she the old bat that recently threw a fit when the airline wouldn't put her in first class on her flight back to TX from DC. She wouldn't shut-up so the FA's cleared out a row in coach and gave it too her!
Too bad the air marshal didn't handcuff her and boot her off! :)

Well, Ms. Jackson-Lee, it isn't working too well. Maybe you should get your a$$ out and walk some, instead of taking a chauffeur-driven limousine 3 1/2 blocks to your office.

Lard is still used to fry with in some places.

I prefer peanut oil for frying fries.
