I would be very tempted, if I were Blair, to punch Chirac right in the face.

Have you seen this man?

Regards, Ivan

Bump!

I'm surprised that with Jagoff Chirac's recent rehtoric, that Jagoff himself hasn't driven the first backhoe in Normandy getting those "infidels" remains off his "precious" French soil.

The Vichy spirit dominates France.

Instead of the Nazis, today they collaborate with the Islamofascists. If the Nazis were still around, they'd be collaborating with them, too.

The French economy is going to mierda. Of course the French seem to have mierda for brains as well. Chirac is full of mierda also.

The denunciation of the French as “cheese-eating surrender monkeys”, first levelled by a character in the televised cartoon The Simpsons, has entered the public lexicon, emerging on more than 6,000 websites.

hehehe ...

Forget about France, stop the American Entertainment Industry traitors. I am sure the big wigs are starting to get nervous about a backlash to the Mellencamps, Crowes, Sarandons and Dixie Chicks of the world. what a bunch of ungrateful a__holes.

I think Chirac's primary goal is to force Britain to go to war without UN backing, hoping Blair will be ejected by the Labourites, eliminating Chirac's main rival for leadership in Europe.

AMERICAN hostility to France reached new heights yesterday when the remains of
US servicemen buried in Normandy were dragged into the heat of battle over Iraq.

Actually, this does sort of emotive outburst is understandable.
I have watched in amazement as Colin Powell has evolved from "Mr. Sensitive Diplomat"
last year, "Mr. Happy Diplomat" after that 15-0 vote for Resolution 1441, then
to "Mr. Please Honor Our Agreement Diplomat" when France starts their "Non!" chorus,
and now he's finally (according to knowledgeable sources) "Mr. NO MORE MR. NICE GUY Diplomat".

When a country ticks off even Colin Powell like this...they've gone too freakin' far.

A Florida congresswoman introduced a Bill on Capitol Hill that would allow the families of Second World War dead to dig up their bones and take them home.

Why stop there? Since the French are such ingrates, lets pack up other historical items and send them back to where they came from:

Statue of Liberty in Paris 1886 w/ Bartholdi in Foreground

Let's wait until this thing is over before we do anything foolish. The Congresswoman's Bill seems to me to be a bit over dramatic.

And NO I am not defending their actions. I am just saying the French Government does not represent the true feelings of all the French people, just as Clinton did not reflect the true spirt of all Americans.

France has been more afraid of Iraq than of America and Britain.

Bad, bad mistake.

you guys better keep up on where their two nuke subs are located....
my guess is one is off the coast of Dover and the other off the coast of Atlanta...

I think it is becoming that serious.
Britain still has hunter/killer subs? Sonar net?

France wants a war because they thinkthat with the secret alliance that has just been blown wide open... with China, Russia, Iran, Iraq, N. Korea, Cuba, Venezuela... and ahost of other third worlders, that they can take us on and wipe us out as a world power.

They have never loved the UK either. The USA is number one... THE UK is a close second... and Aussies are followed by Israel...
France is after us all. They have apparently fooled Turkey into their gaggle of whores...
Tony is right to cut off relations.
Forgive me but; "Damn the French..."

Separated at Birth Chirac and Pesci

Looks like an old geezer doing Tai-Chi.

This article reminds me of a political cartoon from the late 1960's.
Charles DeGaule is standing in front of a row of crosses at an American Cemetery in France and says;

"Why is it you Americans always stay where you are not wanted?"

[Mister Baredog]

Thanks for the post Ivan

Mr Blair and President Chirac will meet.

I sure would like to be a "fly on the wall" for that one!
