What Sort of Hat Are You? ."...antidemocratic sentiment was not merely an ephermeral trend, but a defining feature of 20th century French political culture.

There is not a French race. It is at least 5 different tribes with different languages. And then the Normans who conquered Britain were not French at all.

Thanks for the line -- where does it come from? BTW, as far as France and Germany being anti-Western, doesn't that really mean, "anti-American"? And their attitudes towards America are peculiar, too, considering that America is now dominated by the same sort of crap those other countries celebrate.

How could someone who pretends to know so much history, be ignorant of what was once the most popular phrase regarding the French, not to mention its historical background?

Don't forget that a lot of "French" blood is to be found among the Palestinians.

Prior to the 20th century, the term "race" referred to races and nationalities alike.

...The French, they are a funny race,
They box with their feet, and f**ck with their face.

So, that's what a cheese-eating surrender monkey looks like! Thank you!

Is that your work? Have you shown it to Mark Steyn yet?
