France


'France has neither winter nor summer nor morals. Apart from these drawbacks
it is a fine country.  France has usually been governed by prostitutes.'

Mark Twain

------------------------------

'I would rather have a German division in front of me than a French one
behind me.'

General George S. Patton

------------------------------

'Going to war without  France is like going deer hunting without your
accordion.'

Norman Schwartzkopf

------------------------------

'We can stand here like the French, or we can do something about it.'

Marge Simpson

------------------------------

'As far as I'm concerned, war always means failure.'

Jacques Chirac, President of  France

------------------------------

'The only time  France wants us to go to war is when the German Army is
sitting in Paris sipping coffee.'

Regis Philbin

------------------------------

'You know, the French remind me a little bit of an aging actress of the
1940s who was still trying to dine out on her looks but doesn't have the
face for it.'

John McCain , U.S. Senator from Arizona

------------------------------

'The last time the French asked for 'more proof' it came marching into Paris
under a German flag.'

David Letterman

------------------------------

'Only thing worse than a Frenchman is a Frenchman who lives in  Canada .'

Ted Nugent

------------------------------

'War without  France would be like .. World War II.'

Unknown

------------------------------

'The favorite bumper sticker in  Washington  D.C. right now is one that says
'First  Iraq , then Afganistan then France .''

Tom Brokaw

------------------------------

'What do you expect from a culture and a nation that exerted more of its
national will fighting against Disney World and Big Macs than the Nazis?'

Dennis Miller

------------------------------

'It is important to remember that the French have always been there when
they needed us.'

Alan Kent

-----------------------------

'They've taken their own precautions against al-Qa'ida. To prepare for an
attack, each Frenchman is urged to keep duct tape, a white flag, and a
three-day supply of mistresses in the house.'

Argus  Hamilton

------------------------------

'Somebody was telling me about the French Army rifle that was being
advertised on eBay the other day --the description was, 'Never shot. Dropped
once.''

Rep. Roy Blunt, MO

-----------------------------

'The French will only agree to go to war when we've proven we've found
truffles in  Iraq '

Dennis Miller

------------------------------

Q. What did the mayor of  Paris say to the German Army as they entered the
city in WWII?

A. Table for 100,000 m'sieur?

-----------------------------

'Do you know how many Frenchmen it takes to defend  Paris ? It's not known,
it's never been tried.'

Rep. R. Blount, MO

------------------------------

'Do you know it only took  Germany three days to conquer  France in WWII?
And that's because it was raining.'

John Xereas, Manager, DC Improv

------------------------------

The AP and UPI reported that the French Government announced after the
London bombings that it has raised its terror alert level from Run to Hide.
The only two higher levels in  France are Surrender and Collaborate. The
rise in the alert level was precipitated by a recent fire which destroyed
France 's white flag factory, effectively disabling their military.

------------------------------

French Ban Fireworks at Euro Disney

(AP), Paris , March 5, 2003

The French Government announced today that it is imposing a ban on the use
of fireworks at Euro Disney. The decision comes the day after a nightly
fireworks display at the park, located just 30 miles outside of Paris ,
caused the soldiers at a nearby French Army garrison to surrender to a group
of Czech tourists.

We once had a Parisian forumer named Joudi who was quite a prolific poster.  Sadly he was a bit of a Jesus freak and that caused a lot of animosity amongst the heathens and infidels amongst us.  You all know who you are.   ;D
