I like to think they are the heat rash of humanity...or the athlete's foot of the Western World.

That's like the joke about the French surrendering when they heard the fireworks on the Fourth of July

I think the fireworks came from Disneyland

...have you heard that one?

The latest French victory was over a McDonalds franchise in a Paris suburb. The entire French Nation celebrates the MORON who headed up the assault.

1. Shame on the Washington Times if the story isn't true.

2. The French gov't is really being run by a bunch of whiny, immature, emotional, ridiculous, greedy, dishonest, self-serving people. Kinda reminds me of the last U.S. administration. Reporters might want to question some interns.

I'm sure, whatever it is, it will be completely accurate.

"The passport story had them really hot," said a senior U.S. official. "They delivered passionate, heated and repeated denials that any such thing was occurring."

Bill Gertz, who broke the story, asked them for a comment. He got a "non-denial denial". They adamently denied they had provided "visas" to iraqi officials. However the allegation was that they provided passports, not visas.

I don't suppose they would care to deny (oh, wait, they already did) the documents found in Baghdad showing the French government passing on information about Bush-Chirac talks to the Iraqis, as well as other documents.

• News reports, quoting administration officials, suggesting France might have sold weapons to Iraq in defiance of U.N. sanctions.

Never mind that we found Roland anti-aircraft milliles in Baghdad dated 2002, and one of them shot down an A10.

France says...

Dammit!
In the U.S. they keep quoting our idiot politicians!

What's the problem?
Make your choices and take the consequences.

I understand that they celebrate the victory every year.
A national holiday.

If France feels that it is a "victim" of a "smear" campaing, it it because France is sitting in its own crapulence.

Let's see... they dip themselves in s**t and then say we're smearing them when we hold our noses and tell the world how bad they stink. Got it.
