Yes, by all means...FTF.

BTW, does the Arizona school system use French textbooks or something?

As to the Revolutionary War, the French (pre-Revolution and most certainly pre-Napoleon) stirred us on to make gains upon the English. They refused to land troops here when we needed them, and simply blocked the British fleet while safely sitting on deck...more luck with prevailing winds along the point than any great naval battle on their behalf.

That little French basturd's personal ego helped egg on our own little shortsh!t (Madison) to snub the British which kept them from controlling his initial gains on the Euro mainland. Course, Madison got his a$$ kicked out of bed for listening to the French in the first place, who failed to help us here after getting us to divert the British attention (not the other way around for chrissake). However, we did end up with some dam good donuts.

The Statue? The French failed in their fund raising of the total cost, and not only did we pay for the base, Pulitzer started fundraising drives to help finish the Statue itself when the french came up short (which they always do).

The wine? Not bad, but in any given year ours is better, and I might add from vineyards I have walked on American soil.

Iraq...who sold them Mirages? Who sided with the Russians and Germans when a combined effort might have caused the idiot to stand down. You're siding with foreign governments against your own? Some Vichy blood in your past?

Count the number of French soldiers' gravestones on American soil...then go to Normandy.

Yes, FTF.

And BTW, calling someone an "idiot" and a "moron" is just not nice...cool it.
