rmI can't even believe I'm posting this, but
What is up with Americans and France?
I'm watching this crap on CNN about pre-election anxiety disorder, and someone is going on about how Democrats are having nightmares because Bush has been so demonized and how Republicans are appalled that this Francophile might take office.
What the fucking fuck? I don't get it. Of all the rampant stupidities at hand in this election, the French thing has got to be the absolute lamest.
I understand the historical and political reasons for this level of pettiness, but I don't understand the level of significance this little footnote keeps insisting on taking for itself.
Hello... we're in a war and it's not going well. The economy is shit. Healthcare costs have gone from potentially scary to terrifying right now. No matter what side you're on, WHY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THE GODDAMN FRENCH?
