Bush Just Keeps Pissing Me Off More Every Day.....

[Said1]

Yeah, but ours is made of paper, so it's better!

Biteth moi.

It's very exciting for us. You have to remember, it wasn't that long ago that our dollar was at 0 .65 against yours. This is a BIG deal.

[82Marine89]

This has got to be to be fake story. There is no way this could ever pass and become law

It's not fake. You see our traitor President prefers to push this stuff through in SECRET!

I don;t know - it sounds to crazy to be true. I am trying to find other sources - if it is true the nation wil explode

I don't know if it was already posted, but here is the governments own website.

How does the Kool-Aid taste now?

We have had help along the way...we would not even be around as a nation if France had not intervened on our behalf in the Revolutionary War.

I attack stupid wherever I find it.

Fixed that for ya, OCA.

Hey! Said speaks Francois!

And France wouldn't exist twice over if we hadn't taken their country back from the Germans twice.

ah the french.....joining americans just in time to win....

France's wartime history....

* Gallic Wars - Lost. In a war whose ending foreshadows the next 2000 years
of French history, France is conquered by of all things, an Italian.

* Hundred Years War - Mostly lost, saved at last by female schizophrenic who
inadvertently creates The First Rule of French Warfare; "France's armies are
victorious only when not led by a Frenchman."

* Italian Wars - Lost. France becomes the first and only country to ever
lose two wars when fighting Italians.

* Wars of Religion - France goes 0-5-4 against the Huguenots

* Thirty Years War - France is technically not a participant, but manages to
get invaded anyway. Claims a tie on the basis that eventually the other
participants started ignoring her.

* War of Devolution - Tied. Frenchmen take to wearing red flowerpots as
chapeaux.

* The Dutch War - Tied

* War of the Augsburg League/King William's War/French and Indian War Lost,
but claimed as a tie. Three ties in a row induces deluded Frogophiles the
world over to label the period as the height of French military power.

* War of the Spanish Succession - Lost. The War also gave the French their
first taste of a Marlboro , which they have loved ever since.

* American Revolution - In a move that will become quite familiar to future
Americans, France claims a win even though the English colonists saw far
more action. This is later known as "de Gaulle Syndrome", and leads to the
Second Rule of French Warfare; " France only wins when America does most of
the fighting."

* French Revolution - Won, primarily due the fact that the opponent was
also French.

* The Napoleonic Wars - Lost. Temporary victories (remember the First
Rule!) due to leadership of a Corsican, who ended up being no match for a
British footwear designer.

* The Franco-Prussian War - Lost. Germany first plays the role of drunk
Frat boy to France 's ugly girl home alone on a Saturday night.

* World War I - Tied and on the way to losing, France is saved by the
United States . Thousands of French women find out what it's like to not
only sleep with a winner, but one who doesn't call her "Fraulein." Sadly,
widespread use of condoms by American forces forestalls any improvement in
the French bloodline.

* World War II - Lost. Conquered French liberated by the United States and
Britain just as they finish learning the Horst Wessel Song.

* War in Indochina - Lost. French forces plead sickness, take to bed with
the Dien Bien Flu

* Algerian Rebellion - Lost. Loss marks the first defeat of a western army
by a Non-Turkic Muslim force since the Crusades, and produces the First Rule
of Muslim Warfare; "We can always beat the French." This rule is identical
to the First Rules of the Italians, Russians, Germans, English, Dutch,
Spanish, Vietnamese and Esquimaux.

* War on Terrorism - France , keeping in mind its recent history,
surrenders to Germans and Muslims just to be safe. Attempts to surrender to
Vietnamese ambassador fail after he takes refuge in a McDonald's.

Thus, the question for any country silly enough to count on the French
should not be "Can we count on the French?", but rather "How long until
France collapses?"

and we more then paid them back on June 6, 1944 when the US led the charge to save their asses from Hitler

BTW, France may have seen the error in their ways by tossing out the liberal USA hating nuts, and voting, gasp, conservative

I know it. I actually was thinking about taking the family to Canada sometime... but it's getting too expensive now.

That's always been debatable, yet for sure they helped put a quicker end to a very long war. Most definetly they deserved our thanks. One must remember though, they didn't enter that war, til the tide had already turned in favor of the colonies.
The US did not get 'involved' in WWI or II regarding saving Europe from Germany, until it was obvious that Germany was winning, not losing.

I'll only take issue with you regarding WWII. After Pearl Harbor, FDR agreed with Churchill to follow a "Europe First" strategy. However, in 1942, the Germans were marching on Moscow, Leningrad, and Stalingrad, and it was in no way certain that they were going to lose the war.

That was my point, Jeff. To all that watched, Germany was winning, the US still agreed to Europe first, not to make a 'gain,' rather to stop the fall. France sided with US in Revolutionary War, after the 'winability' factor was proved.

My position doesn't negate that FDR was going along with GB, AFTER he did what machinations he could to ensure that their Empire would be gone after the war.
