I'm not a fan of the French. They have a very short memory and are an ungrateful people. 55,000 Americans are buried in France. 55,000 American soldiers who died defending THEIR country, and kicking out Hitler -- who, by the way -- was pracing up and down their most famous avenue in Paris.
And, yet, they display such an arrogant attitude and so much disdain for anything that is American. They still can't get over the fact that we're no longer a little European outpost with 13 colonies, that they are mostly irrelevant when it comes to world politics, and that we took their precious croissants and made them into crossandwiches.
Anyway, sorry for hijacking the thread.
