"President" George W. Bush and "Vice President" Tony Blair sing "Endless Love"
I think it’s really idiotic how everyone is going ballistic about the French. I mean, all they did was say, “Um, hey, America? We think that this whole ‘war’ thing is a bad idea.” So in response we decide to yoink the “French” out of “French fries” and “French toast.” (Yes, I’d like a Big Mac and some Freedom Fries, please). As if those things were SO FRENCH to begin with! It’s absurd!! A spokeswoman for the French embassy said it best: “We are at a very serious moment dealing with very serious issues and we are not focusing on the name you give to potatoes.”
France, as they have every right to, has disagreed with Bush’s stance on Iraq. And now some people are referring to the French as “our so-called ally,” which is akin to calling them Traitor. Businesses are refusing to sell French import goods (which is kind of funny because haven’t they already bought those goods, and now they’re just sitting in storage somewhere losing money for these very same businesses?) and of course there’s the whole thing about French fries and stuff.
Come on! Didn’t we all learn in Kindergarten that just because someone disagrees with you doesn’t mean that they’re not your friend? It’s not as if France is pro-Saddam Hussein! They just don’t think our idea is the best way to handle the situation! And call me French, but neither do I!!
