Buzz Billsberry Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 "France has neither winter nor summer nor morals. Apart from these drawbacks it is a fine country. France has usually been governed by prostitutes." ---Mark Twain "I just love the French. They taste like chicken!" ---- Hannibal Lecter While speaking to the Hoover Institution today, Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was asked this question:"Could you tell us why to date at least the Administration doesn't favor direct talks with the North Korean government? After all, we're talking with the French."The Secretary smiled and replied:"I'm not going there!" "I would rather have a German division in front of me than a French one behind me." --- General George S. Patton "Going to war without France is like going deer hunting without your accordian." --Norman Schwartzkopf "We can stand here like the French, or we can do something about it." ----Marge Simpson "As far as I'm concerned, war always means failure" ---Jacques Chirac, President of France "As far as France is concerned, you're right." ---Rush Limbaugh, "The only time France wants us to go to war is when the German Army is sitting in Paris sipping coffee." --- Regis Philbin There was a Frenchman, an Englishman and Claudia Schiffer sitting together in a carriage in a train going through Provence. Suddenly the train went through a tunnel and as it was an old style train, there were no lights in the carriages and it went completely dark. Then there was a kissing noise and the sound of a really loud slap. When the train came out of the tunnel, Claudia Schiffer and the Englishman were sitting as if nothing had happened and the Frenchman had his hand against his face as if he had been slapped there. The Frenchman was thinking: 'The English fella must have kissed Claudia Schiffer and she missed him and slapped me instead.' Claudia Schiffer was thinking: 'The French fella must have tried to kiss me and actually kissed the Englishman and got slapped for it.' And the Englishman was thinking: 'This is great. The next time the train goes through a tunnel I'll make another kissing noise and slap that French b******d again.' "The French are a smallish, monkey-looking bunch and not dressed any better, on average, than the citizens of Baltimore. True, you can sit outside in Paris and drink little cups of coffee, but why this is more stylish than sitting inside and drinking large glasses of whiskey I don't know." --- P.J O'Rourke (1989) Next time there's a war in Europe, the loser has to keep France. An old saying: Raise your right hand if you like the French.... Raise both hands if you are French. "You know, the French remind me a little bit of an aging actress of the 1940s who was still trying to dine out on her looks but doesn't have the face for it." ---John McCain, U.S. Senator from Arizona "You know why the French don't want to bomb Saddam Hussein? Because he hates America, he loves mistresses and wears a beret. He is French, people" .........Conan O'Brien "I don't know why people are surprised that France won't help us get Saddam out of Iraq. After all, France wouldn't help us get the Germans out of France!" ---Jay Leno "The last time the French asked for 'more proof' it came marching into Paris under a German flag." -David Letterman REPLACEMENTS FOR THE FRENCH NATIONAL ANTHEM: "Runaway" by Del Shannon, "Walk Right In" by the Rooftop Singers, "Everybody's Somebody's" Fool by Connie Francis, "Running Scared" by Roy Orbison, "I Really Don't Want to Know" by Tommy Edwards, "Surrender" by Elvis Presley, "Save It For Me" by The Four Seasons, "Live and Let Die" by Wings, "I'm Leaving It All Up To You" by Donny and Marie Osmond, "What a Fool Believes" by the Doobie Brothers, "Don't Worry, Be Happy" by Bobby McFerrin "Raise Your Hands" by Jon Bon Jovi "Run to the Hills" by Iron Maiden How many Frenchmen does it take to change a light bulb? One. He holds the bulb and all of Europe revolves around him. Buzz

Westfields Rock On Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 lol. Did you mean French Military DEFEATS?
mogwi Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 You can't blame the French for not wanting to get involved, they don't want to get killed by US 'friendly fire'. (Not allowed to mention oil) And lets not forget that the US refused to help us in the Falklands. (nothing to do with oil) At least the French leaders are listening to the people who voted them in, unlike Blair and Dubya. (not allowed to mention oil) And of course the US missed WW1, were late for WW2 so they want to be early for next one. (WW3, sponsored by Ex**n) Anyway, going to fill up the Westie now before oil hits $40 a barrel

Captain Colonial Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 The Complete Military History Of France - Gallic Wars: Lost. In a war whose ending foreshadows the next 2000 years of French history, France is conquered, by of all things, an Italian. - Hundred Years War: Mostly lost. Saved at last by female schizophrenic who inadvertently creates The First Rule of French Warfare; "France's armies are victorious only when not led by a Frenchman." - Italian Wars: Lost. France becomes the first and only country to ever lose two wars when fighting Italians. - Wars of Religion: France goes 0-5-4 against the Huguenots - Thirty Years War: France is technically not a participant, but manages to get invaded anyway. Claims a tie on the basis that eventually the other participants started ignoring her. - War of Devolution: Tied. Frenchmen take to wearing red flowerpots as chapeaux. - The Dutch War: Tied - War of the Augsburg League/King William's War/French and Indian War: Lost. But claimed as a tie. Three ties in a row induces deluded Frogophiles the world over to label the period as the height of French military power. - War of the Spanish Succession: Lost. The War also gave the French their first taste of a Marlboro, which they have loved every since. - American Revolution: In a move that will become quite familiar to future Americans, France claims a win even though the English colonists saw far more action. This is later known as "de Gaulle Syndrome", and leads to the Second Rule of French Warfare; "France only wins when America does most of the fighting." - French Revolution: Won. Primarily due the fact that the opponent was also French. - The Napoleonic Wars: Lost. Temporary victories (remember the First Rule!) due to leadership of a Corsican, who ended up being no match for a British footwear designer. - The Franco-Prussian War: Lost. Germany first plays the role of drunk Frat boy to France's ugly girl home alone on a Saturday night. - World War I: Tied and on the way to losing. France is saved by the United States. Thousands of French women find out what it's like to not only sleep with a winner, but one who doesn't call her "Fraulein." Sadly, widespread use of condoms by American forces forestalls any improvement in the French bloodline. - World War II: Lost. Conquered French liberated by the United States and Britain just as they finish learning the Horst Wessel Song. - War in Indochina: Lost. French forces plead sickness, take to bed with the Dien Bien Flu - Algerian Rebellion: Lost. Loss marks the first defeat of a western army by a Non-Turk Muslim force since the Crusades, and produces the First Rule of Muslim Warfare; "We can always beat the French." This rule is identical to the First Rules of the Italians, Russians, Germans, English, Dutch, Spanish, Vietnamese and Esquimaux. - War on Terrorism: France, keeping in mind its recent history, surrenders to Germans and Muslims just to be safe. Attempts to surrender to Vietnamese ambassador fail after he takes refuge in a McDonald's.

mogwi Posted March 18, 2003 Posted March 18, 2003 I'm anti Bush and almost anti Blair. I'm also anti the arms trade who supply despotic Leaders with weapons (one Donald Rumsfeld was the salesman who supplied Saddam). But I'm most definitely pro getting rid of despotic Leaders who kill their own people Have a look here http://www.michaelmoore.com/words/message/index.php to see what the Americans think of Dubya. Brent Oil is $28 as of this morning!
