Again you bring up only France, as if they speak for the Rest of Us ..... i live in BC, which has been under attack by the Bush administration since 11 Aug 2001, when they caved to the corruptos of the yellow pine lobby and slapped punitive tariffs on our lumber ..... do we give a sht what the french think, no ma'am we do not, we've got some thoughts of our own Bushista trade corruption aside, look at the support you had going into Afghanistan, and compare it to the whole marketing-through-execution campaign against Iraq ..... Bush blew an opportunity to foster real cooperation ..... would Kerry have done so, in that manner or another - possibly, but we can't know that for sure, what we do know for sure is that Bush told us, using that royal 'us', yer with us or agin us Given that choice, we are agin him, and looking actively for US nationals with whom we can be with [edit] - [sorry, missed this on first scan] - 'France runs its foreign policy for cold hard cash*' .... lol, and just how is this distinct from the back rooms of Washington .... take for example the 'Commerce' department, with their yellow pine lobby connections .... and then there's Oil, of course, but hey, right there with wood you can see it
