7. How do you expect the democratic party to capture
the vote of mainstream America when you taunt the fact you support French Products when 70% of mainstream America supported this war?

16. I am just saying
we have to play the center to win. This war is not the center, the war is far left and if we endorse the far left position we will lose BADLY.

27. I agree
But independents also think the French is the enemy. Bill O'reilly who is an independent lead a boycott of French products which was supported by most Americans. I want to win in 2004, and will not win if we don't play the center.

France's economy tanking. If you do not think it was supported by most Americans you are living under a box. Perhaps you missed video clips of french wine being poured in the streets?

53. Using RW Propaganda to Back Up Your Lame Arguments
Only a few yahoos burned French books er I mean poured French wine in the streets. Unfortunately, they got attention by the media.

There were no incidents like that where I live.

the wine, did they look a lot like those people who see UFO's in the South? Did they have curlers in their hair? Were they wearing shirts? Or . . . were they paid to make a public spectacle of themselves?

I am just stating my opinion, if we talk smack about those who do support the war, we will not gain their vote. In 2004 every vote counts and we need every vote.

44. You're a really, really funny GUY! France's economy is in better shape
than bush's.

Chirac is a good, solid leader, and his country stands firm instead of selling out like whores to the thugs, liars, cheats and thieves in the bush regime.

Yet YOU think we should stand by the mincing words of a tawk show god?

Time to turn off the teevee darlin. Turn off the teevee and think for yourself.

Please explain exactly how, where and when announcing to your pals on an internet message board, created and promoted by and for liberals, munching on a food product became "talking smack about the 70% of the people who support the war"?

Quick, before I run out and get some Roquefort!

have been our allies in more than one war. They also gave us that really neat statue in New York. Many of us have french ancestors. I refuse to bash the french just because some nitwit on the fox channel regurgitated some false pap.

regime!

It's awesome. They have a REAL leader, like Mexico.

Chirac and Fox ROCK.

Although Andouillette are unbeaten in that department.

In any case: there are thousands of French cheese types - unless you've tried them all...


Edit: Andouillette are Tripe sausages; tripe filled with tripe.

32. I had desserts in France - yes
Even the stuff available in the supermarket was better than most products in Restaurants in other countries.
And the art they created in the Restaurants ....

(a tiny Farmer-Restaurant in Burgundy was the best I've visited so far - far more "hands-on" than in Paris or other "upper class" French dining places)

And all those little cafes with hot espresso, fresh bread, fresh eclairs, napoleans, tart tatins!

"Brie and cheese". What a dumbass.

After that taunt, he went back to the ranch for a few hamburgers and ground beef, served with some lettuce and salad, and topped off with some pie and dessert.

If the dorkupine is gonna taunt someone, he should at least try to be good at it.
