What's wrong with you, rockhead? You want another AMerican ally? Hardly serves YOUR purposes.

Geode, the last two southern winters I spent in France. I obviously managed to persuade so many of the local yokels that they were heading down the wrong track that they voted for somebody who was not involved with a terrorist attack in New Zealand instead of that Royal woman [Mitterand's head of missionary positions or something]. <Ship all the rightwingers to France. It's better to have you guys OVER THERE than OVER HERE.> I spent some time in the USA en route, to encourage King George II to keep the corporate dividends tax at a low rate. He agreed that my companies QUALCOMM and Globalstar [and of course all companies] are paying huge amounts of tax on their profits and their employees are paying huge income taxes too [not to mention other duties, sales taxes, local taxes, and imposts], not to mention the taxes suppliers pay on the proceeds of purchases by my companies. France has actual bread [unlike the USA which has sugar held together by flour], cheese in huge quantity at low cost, nectarines which are great, apricots, figs, etc... omigod it's nice. Baguettes with olive oil, tomatoes, onion, lettuce, tapenade, camembert, etc, yum Mqurice
