By the title, you'd think Chirac is gay.
I would never stoop to taking cheap shots at Chirac or at France. I wouldn't want to see them raise a white flag...

Chirac thinks he's the king of Europe. You may recall his threats to prospective EU members when they backed our war in Iraq.
That's what it all comes down to. These jackasses, like our domestic enemies the Dems, are more concerned with their blind hatred of Bush than their own security. They don't care how many more 9/11s take place, they don't care what devices terror groups get their hands on and use -- they just don't care. They can't even see past their own pathological hatred to care. For them, it's really about nothing more than beating Bush. Like the economy is to Dems, the WoT is just an election issue. That people cannot comprehend the very real and horrific dangers being faced, all because "they" lost an election... Truly frightening.
Chirac now says, "We are friends (of the United States), we are allies.
A French diplomat suggested there are better uses for the new NATO Rapid Reaction Force, which is largely manned by French troops: "When you have a Formula One car in the garage," he said, "you are not going to risk bashing it up in the mountains of Afghan."
Fenton fails to mention that Chirac's job approval his party's ratings are much lower than Bush's. Chirac has a major political problem domestically as does Schroeder in Germany. All is not well in Old Europe.
President Jacques Chirac took aim at President Bush last week and accused him of "going too far" by urging the European Union to begin membership negotiations with Turkey as soon as possible. The odd thing is that Chirac also believes Turkey should be admitted to the European Union. He just didn't like Bush telling him so. "It's a bit as if I explained to the United States how it should conduct its relations with Mexico," snapped Chirac.Beg to differ, Jacques:
France blunts German move on Turkish entryThe deep divisions in Europe over admitting Turkey to the EU were thrown into sharp relief last night when it became clear that the German chancellor, Gerhard Schröder, had failed in a bold attempt to cajole France's president, Jacques Chirac, into backing early entry... Sources close to the talks, however, said the Franco-German proposal was for a meeting of EU states at the end of 2004 -and then only to discuss Turkey's progress towards achieving the membership criteria. The new government in Ankara, which wants the EU to set a firm date for the start of accession talks, would regard such an outcome as disappointing, if not downright humiliating... Michael Glos, a leading Christian Democrat, told MPs that "Turkey is neither economically nor politically ripe for entry into the European Union". He said an expansion of the EU beyond the Bosphorus would "destroy the European project".

Sounds like Chirac ought to loosen up a little bit. He is like a lot of Frenchmen...He walks around with his shorts on a little too tight!!!!
We are not friends you backstabbing, cheese eating surrender weasel. You were a worthless ally and we would rather employ illegal aliens from Mexico than let you serve us anything.
I will cheer the next army that invades you.
