They bash us continually for 50 years, then when we finally take notice and retaliate, they whine.

Guerilla Boycott Stickers

Do your part.

From Wild Turkey Whisky to the cheese cabinet, this forward controller prepares the battlefield for the follow on grunts. I always have several dozens of these stickers in my pocket. Like any good coalition soldier, I deploy them at targets of opportunity when shopping.

Does it work? I don't know...but it sure feels good. 

So print up some small stickers
and join the coalition as a forward target designator.

Exactly. The french can dish it out but can not take it.

Two weeks ago I remember a Forbes reporter on Fox News saying the boycot won't work. Well ... not according to some of the articles and data yesterday and today!

What do they do? Get up each morning and compare talking points? Petah Jennings et al issue the morning's whine and then the left hands it off throughout the world?

The French are like the snotty, bratty kid who always tried to get you into trouble, and then when you got your allowance wanted you to buy him an ice cream cone.

If there is "bashing" going on, then someone should hit the abuse button.

"French-bashing is not very useful".

That's not quite right. Should read: "The French aren't very useful."

These idiots knife us in the back, then expect us to come crawling back to them to apologize?

"We don't consider Iraq an El Dorado," said Mr Levitte. "We don't see any cake in Iraq but we see a huge burden."

Cake?

El Dorado was supposed to have gold . . .

Maybe it's a Marie Antoinette reference?

Dear Jean-David Levitte,
French bashing is fun.
Now piss off.

Your friends,
The USA

We noticed it, we just didnt give two craps... Now that they have effectively tried to screwed us, we are returning the gesture they have given us for 50+ yrs. Screw em. Let them wallow in their anti-American hate while we enjoy the spoils of war and win over the hearts and minds of Iraqis (while pointing out that it was the French who tried to stop us from helping them)

I am so thankful that I visited France five years ago. I will NEVER go there again or knowingly buy anything French. WHY? because I was at Normandy and I know what Americans did for them. How CAN they ever forget?????

France's ambassador to the US, Jean David Levitte, took up his duties in Washington last December.

Before that, he was France's permanent representative to the United Nations, where he was posted for two years.
