Mr. Bush and his team still have a lot to learn from France about running the world.

Learn from them? Did they ever?

You tell me what to call it.

right on.

Almost 25 years ago, I infiltrated - an an investigative reporter, a state=wide meeting of DSOC (democratic socialist organizing committee) in our state capitol - :"no press allowed"

the main speaker was our state Senate majority leader - (dem of course.) He held up a card and said" "I, like you, am a card carrying socialist." He went on about how they were not going to be strong enough to come out in the open.: (This was after their knight in shining tarnished armor, teddy boy, had lost even the dem primary and then Reagan was elected) - and so, "we will have to gain power by continuing to infiltrate the democratic party until we are strong enough to take it over."

These people are socialists - make no mistake. I think even Lieberman is getting the picture.

These last few months, they have pretty much "outted" themselves as they cannot hold in their rage at being beaten back once again.

..Forgive Russia. Ignore Germany. Punish France..

Those words will go into history books, as will Condoleeza Rice.

I wonder if Bill Clinton realizes that not only will he be eclipsed by George Bush, he will be eclipsed by people working for George Bush.

That William Jefferson Clinton, will go down, as one of the Worst Presidents in United States History.

Let's see. Condi's been SecState for about 6 days. In that time she has

Dissed Europe on European soil.
Gotten a ceasefire in the Middle East.
Gotten the Germans to cave on assisting Iraq.

AND

Predicted the Super Bowl winning spread: From NYTimes piece written BEFORE the game: "she has told aides that the New England Patriots will win by 3 points with a field goal in the 4th quarter."

Eat yer heart out, Billy Jeff.

And tomorrow she'll be in Paris! I would love it if she'd sit down at a piano at the Elysee Palace and start banging out some obscure concerto. LOL!

I tried to read it and got two paragraphs into it when I realized I don't care.

They can start by drinking all the wine they can no longer sell in the U.S

I think my current tagline about sums it up..

Encourage them to do the research themselves into those things and then ask the questions...

Who led them to believe what they used to?

Why would they need to use deception to convince them of P.B. abortion etc?

Many people do not have their beliefs at their identity level that is where it needs to live.

It's fun to watch the French struggle to maintain their delusion of relevance. (As long as you forget the dregs of their influence and power have been spilled aiding dictators and abetting genocide.)

I saw your tag line. Good one. I put a little something together along the same line.

france can not accept that it is no longer a world power.

The only "power" France has possessed since WWII is as a member of the U.N. Security Council. When Bush told the U.N. that the U.S. wasn't going to put up with another 12 years or so of its dithering and ineffectiveness with regard to Iraq, he pretty much told France that even that little shred of relevance no longer was available to it. The U.N. is irrelevant; France is irrelevant.

France is utterly corrupt, economically stagnant and morally vacant. That Chirac thinks we should give a merde what he says demonstrates that he and his nation are mired in delusion.

But another participant said perhaps that was not such a good idea, noting that in some of their previous meetings, Mr. Chirac has pointed his finger at Mr. Bush and lectured him on what he does not know.

Not a smart thing to do to an ex-fighter pilot Texan who happens to be POTUS, Jack.

Maybe you can find a 21st Century Citizen Genet to tour the US.

Maybe Chrirac could get Bush to sing a duet "You don't bring me flowers (anymore)"?
