France as well! Republicans gave us French so much shit for standing up to the US and refuse to support the invasion. "Freedom fries", "Surrender monkeys" and all that crap.

Refusing to get pressured into wartime adventurism was absolutely the right move, and the French said so at the time despite the juvenile insults being tossed their way by our dimmest politicians.

I remember when Republicans tried to hit Obama for going on an "apology tour" after W and his clowns trashed our most cherished alliances.

The worst part is that they're too cynical or stupid to be embarrassed for themselves.

Freedom fries... hehehe je trouve encore ça drôle. À bien ý penser c'était un des premiers signes de la transformation débile de la politîque américaine.

Well, there was trickle down economics before that. Reagan was the downfall.

You hear all about Freedom Fries, but I’ve never heard of Freedom Toast.
