Well, I think it's funny.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLLBuly4hnQ I'm NOT Jake !!

Like WWII when the French surrendered too easily and the Yanks stayed home and watched from the sidelines - which is where they would've stayed if the Japanese hadn't been so fuckin stupid.

#7 Post at 12-10-2009 16:53  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Reply #6 Lenny's post doesn't help the french to have been the weakest link on the allied side in both WWI and WWII. imagine getting trounced by germany twice in a space of 30 years and the second time around, in such unbelievably quick time. unfortunately now, when americans/brits think of the french military, they think vichy and the maginot line. abit of ridicule here and a tad of animosity there. in a testosterone-driven world, you get judged on the accomplishments (or lack thereof) of your military and to a lesser extent, the number of rugby or footie world cups you win (or don't).    whileyouarere adingthisiamst aringatyourtits

Hear Ye!  The Mayor has spoken!
