My French-Italian American friend. Tarara Boomdier, reminded me, that the United States would still be a British colony if it weren’t for France. Both Italy and France are older, more mature cultures than ours, and they both have had the experience of being the top military dog in the world. The fact that France chose not to be part of the Iraq fiasco is to her credit, and and joking about French cowardice is a ruse to cover for our own poor judgement in choosing leaders and courses of action. She made mistakes similar to our own in the early 1800's, but at least she got rid of her own monarchy in the process. Vive la France, and thanks for the heritage, the art, philosophy, the wine, and, of course, the statue.

Thanks for the equal time Virg. It must be the Irish coming out in you. It's certainly not the Scot or English.
Virgil:
You are a mystery to me.
Virgil:
Your standing up for us makes me burn for you.
Tarara is right. It must be the Irish in you. It's certainly not the German.
