I've never read so much low class tripe in one message. The French haven't been an ally in the real sense to America since the revolution. many of the ideas for American democracy came not from the French but from the English.

The French were an intimate part of the oil for food scandal and were scheming with the russians to get control of the sale of Iraqi oil behind the back of the UN. The French oppose American policy all over the world. But you know that and won't admit it.

The French still owe us money from WW 1 and WW 2, they haven't like us ever, they just want to help us in 1776 because they hated the British

Gee, I'm shocked. We have another clueless troll.

Yawn. Why are these over opinionated, albeit reality defying jackasses a dime a dozen?

Shoo cretin!

How did the French do with our request for air clearance when we sent planes into Libya?

Do the French assist with more direct air routes when planes bring our wounded soldiers back from Iraq for treatment in Europe and elsewhere???

The French are not allies.

"John Addams and Thomas Jefferson visited them and returned with support and ideas that were used to found this great country.

The ideas that were used to found this great country were founded upon 'Age of Enlightenment' thought, not on political loyalties. The French were excited about it as were many others of the period, that is why they offered material support then. What has changed?

Fishhead, the Frogs stabbing us in the back long predates Iraq. Maybe you should learn something before you spout off.
