We're anti-France now. Whatever though, they can try and kill us along with Iraq too!

French fries aren't even French. They're from Belgium, I think.

Real French Fries are like chips, I guess.

Did you guys hear about the war vet who sent back some certificate of honour from France, because France has "turned its back on the US". Yes, I'm sure some old bastard is going to change their mind by acting like a two year old...

Today it was reported that severe earthquakes have
occurred in 10 different locations in France. The severity was measured in
excess of 10 on the Richter Scale. The cause was the 56,681 dead American
soldiers buried in French soil rolling over in their graves. According to
the American Battle Monuments Commission there are 26,255 Yankee dead from
World War I buried in 4 cemeteries in France. There are 30,426 American dead
from World War II buried in 6 cemeteries in France. These 56,681 brave
American heroes died in their youth to liberate a country, which is guilty of
shameful unspeakable behavior in the 21st century. May the United States of
Americanever forget their sacrifice as we find ways to forcefully deal with
the Godforsaken unappreciative, forgetful country of France!

last i heard france was a country.. with their own set of borders, ideals and set of morals and all that fun shit..
they also have their own opinions on what is right and what is wrong.
regardless of what happened in the past they have the right to express these
if they dont do what the americans THINK is right does that mean that all those ppl who died are gonna turn over in their grave?! wtf .. they made a decision that they believe is right.. but instead of excepting this fact the american ppl and media choose to chastise them and bring up the fact that since they were saved b4 by the americans that they now HAVE to do what the americans say?!
umm.. no

a friend of mine saved my life in the past.. if this friend did or was about to do something really fucking stupid would i just follow suit or would i pretend to not care? no .. of course not.. i would respect her decision but at the same time voice mine about what she was doing.. just because she saved MY life doesnt make me HER bitch ..
the same hold true in this case.. regardless of what happened in the past.. the french are making a stand .. let them.. all the power to them.. if democracy means so much in the states.. then why is it when another democratic nation.. (let alone 3) make a stand on something they are no longer committed to what BUSH wants and therefore chastised publically?
freedom fries my fuckin ass

russia saved france, not the usa. france owes their loyalties in world war 2 to russia, who is anti-war.

the americans were involved and american lives were lost.. regardless of who eventually "won" the war .. i will give credit to those countries who lost the lives of young men for the sake of freedom..

but i do agree that russia is also anti-war as is germany and the better part of the other major countries..
if im not correct.. the of the G8 countries.. france, germany, italy, canada and russia are against this war with just the states and britain for it.. so that shows how much support they have from the Group of 8
