As long as these Jokers (I mean honorable Con-gressmen of the United -God Chosen Country on earth - States of America)
are there, Sheeple need nothing else.

It looks like these jokers have enough time in their hand, at the expense of Sheeple's tax money, to come up with a resolution and have press conf to change names starting with "French" in their cafeteria.

No wonder all these political jokers end their speech with
"God Bless America". At this rate even God may find it very hard to Bless the Sheeple and protect them from these jokers and The Street crooks.


An Order of Fries, Please, but Do Hold the French
By SHERYL GAY STOLBERG

WASHINGTON, March 11 — The French may have Champagne, Brie, croissants and even kisses. Americans, at least in the cafeterias of the House of Representatives, now have freedom fries and freedom toast.

With frustration rising in the Capitol over French opposition to President Bush's policy on Iraq, Representative Bob Ney, the Ohio Republican who is chairman of the House Administration Committee, which is responsible for House operations, ordered the word "French" stricken from all House menus. The action was unilateral. No vote was required.

"It's a symbolic gesture," said Mr. Ney, who is of French descent and speaks French fluently. "Not to slap the French around, but people are not hot on the French government right now. This is just to send a message to the troops to say that here in the Capitol, we are not happy."
