Sheppard Smith when he read it off the wires looked like he was in shock. I am however,not surprised one bit.

[Robert_Paulson2]

Thank God, the FRENCH finally get it!!!

We really were not to comfortable with them on "OUR TEAM" to begin with... I actually feel much safer now...

[dead]

France will launch their fleet of unmanned drones against the U.S.

France’s planes are “unmanned” even when they have pilots in them.

[No Truce With Kings]

Does that mean they want to surrender to *us* now?

I dunno. Nazi Germany, Tojo's Japan, the Soviet Union -- even Kaiser Bill -- those were worthy opponents, who *earned* the right to surrender to the United States. I'm not sure that we should lower ourselves to the level where we are accepting France's surrender.

I mean, why go where everyone else in the world has been.

[ErnBatavia]

Perhaps he's being extorted by Saddam.

You could be right....pictures of him having a "Menage a Uno" in some Burger King - a la Scottie?

Man on phone with Sheppard Smith says Chirac DID NOT MEAN WHAT HE WAS QUOTED ON. Back pedal begins.....

[HEY4QDEMS]

Oooouuuuuuuuu not that.

[AmericanInTokyo]

I guess we will have to leave our accordion behind as we go into battle!

[FreeTheHostages]

Wow.

It's just like George Will says: they're not our ally, they stopped being our ally when they kept selling military equipment to Iraq.

[Donna Lee Nardo]

chirac is a little zany with his remarks now and again...first he threatens and ridicules and bullies some fellow European neighbors and now he pulls a hissy fit about withdrawing from the GLOBAL terror war! A diplomat he is NOT! Maybe he is on medication...or maybe he needs to be on medication...

[keithtoo]

Maybe France just wants to get in on some of that US rebuilding $$$$$ action.

[nicmarlo]

They are more than stupid....the now place their own citizens at the same peril as us before 9/11.....what utter idiots. France has now declared "safe harbor" to terrorists.....which means, they are now part of the Axis of Evil.

[bert]

Monsieur Chirac.... You are now against us.

[mhking]

"You're either with us or you're with the terrorists..."

No matter. We can take out france en route to Iraq. I wouldn't mind seeing france annexed by us and becoming New East Louisiana.

"Hold muh beer 'n watch this!" PING....

If you want on or off this list, please let me know!

[exile]

If the French are out, who's going to chain smoke and retreat?

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Chirac says invasion on Iraq will ruin the alliance on terror and they will not be a partner in it.

Yes they will.

(They'll just be a partner of Iraq and Al-Qaeda.)

[My Favorite Headache]

Chirac claims credibility of war on terror will be gone if we go into Iraq. Sheppard Smith says "Oh"...lolololol

[Robe]

I hate to even say this... but do you suppose that France knows SH has THE
BOMB....helped him design it... knows SH will use it if invasions takes place... knowing
that we can trace the radium back to France...making France a Ally and subject to a
nuclear attack by the US ?..

Just thoughts going through my mind....

[swheats]

This is crazy, he just said that Iraq wasn't cooperating. I think this man is heading for a nervous breakdown.

[ellery]

Well, that means they're added to the list of countries whose citizens are fingerprinted and all flights and shipments are subject to waiting periods while we check manifests. If that's what they want...
