FRENCH KISS-OFF
Wake up people! How can it be that in the land of free opinion we
can so easily hate another country for expressing their own opinion?
We've been making the biggest jokes on ourselves by hating the French
for having their own world view. It won't stop us. It won't change
much. We just seem to hate them because they don't unquestioningly
agree with us. We are even changing our vocabulary to exercise their
obviously irritating hold on our culture. Luckily the boys on Capitol
hill are taking care of it for us. Freedom Fries, Freedom Toast,
Freedom Dressing, Freedom Kissing. Are you kidding me? Since America
seems to hate everything French, or what we think is from France, why
don't we just forget that they saved our ass in the Revolutionary war
and dismantle the Statue of Liberty and ship it back to France. We can
replace it with a monolithic statue of President Bush. He can raise
Vishnu like arms ominously pointing out toward all the countries in
the "axis of evil." It can serve as reminder that if your not with us,
we're coming after you!
