Bush aides are chuckling over a new bumper sticker that pokes fun at France's refusal to join the president's pressure campaign on Iraq. "Texas," it says, "is bigger than France."

Priceless! Where can I buy one?

"I wasn't worried until they told me the assisting physician for my surgery was Dr. Howard Dean." SEN. JOHN KERRY, a Democratic presidential candidate referring to his prostate surgery and a presidential foe.

Kerry woke up and found he had had an abortion.

For those of you that can speak French, enjoy:

La France n'est une rien la nation qui peut à peine survivre il doit posséder. Elle n'a aucun militaire, et dépend d'autres nations pour la protéger, y compris les Etats-Unis. Pourquoi sont-elles bouleversées au sujet d'aller faire la guerre avec l'Irak? Bien, principalement parce qu'elles ont des contrats d'huile et d'armements avec Bagdad. Pour le mettre simplement, ils sont dans le lit avec Saddam Hussein.

Y'all go HERE, hear? <|:)~

"Texas is bigger than France."

Not to mention better by far. :)

[Senator Pardek]

Yeah, yeah - just get your gloating over with.

[Domestic Church]

"...ils sont dans le lit avec Saddam Hussein."

La France avec Saddam dans le lit allez en fer.

Iraq is comparable in land mass to California- approx 160,000 square miles. The Shuttle debris fell over a couple of hundred square miles in Texas .Using hundreds and possibly thousands of searchers,plus thousands of volunteer citizens,only parts of the Shuttle have been reclaimed.Compare that statistic with 100 UN inspectors presently searching an uncooperative Iraq,the size of California, for hidden weapons.

"Texas," it says, "is bigger than France."

They are also MEANER

[the_doc]

I like the comment I heard to the effect that California or even Virginia could defeat France in a war. (Each of those two states provides home ports for more aircraft carriers than France has.)

[fieldmarshaldj]

Texas craps bigger than France, but France has bigger $hits.

[LibKill]

And the food is better, too. :) (Been to France...)

I, too, have been to that pathetic excuse for a country.

I sometimes wake up at night, screaming, with cold sweats.

[Prof Engineer]

And the food is better, too. :)

Chicken fried steak. YUM

Chicken fried snails? YUCK

We have better food, nicer people, cows with longer horns, and were smart enough to elect W governor twice. Thank you for the link. I hope I can get my sticker before W gets here next week.

Texans also have (and know how to use) bath soap.

One of the funniest exchange I've been involved with here on FR was when, shortly after 9/11, we were feeling our way and someone posted the fact that Afghanistan was about the size of Texas and I posted:

"Yeah....but it's not filled with Texans."

To which someone replied:

"Yet."

[Hila]

C'est vrai. Did I write it correctly?

[Gamecock]

"Reasons why Texas is better than France"

[McLynnan]

Absolutely, and we clean up nice : ). Most importantly, we don't give a flying fig what France thinks about anything. I bet those nasal talking sissies would keel over if you fed them a decent jalapeno.

[PetroniDE]

Long time no hear from HC:

What we all should do is go to a French restaurant, and let them surrender to us (we get to eat for free).

[RonDog]

Y'all go HERE, hear? <|:)~

Yeah, and Texas women shave their armpits as well.

[MeekOneGOP]

LOL ! Nice thread ! Thanks for the ping, Spookie ! And for the post, Pokey !

[maxwell]

"Texas is bigger than France."

LMAO! Outstanding!

[Centurion2000]

And if France wants to get froggy with nukes against Texas ... 3 words.

Hey,neighbor!!!

One thing Okies have over Texans is the finest Southern neighbors in the world.

That's one thing Texans can't brag on. :0)

[Indiana Jones]

Here in Texas, the saying 'all hat, no cattle' says a lot about somebody who has an enlarged opinion of themselves. Maybe the French version would be 'all beret, no b_lls.'

[MeekOneGOP]

Oh, wow ! I love it...

[MeekOneGOP]

Priceless! Where can I buy one?

See post #24. You really CAN buy one. A bumper sticker or a T-Shirt...
