So now Dubya is a friend of France??

[kentuck]

The US and France are working together to create a ceasefire for Lebanon and Israel? When did we normalize relations with France? I thought they were our enemy? Freedom fries and freedom toast and all that right-wing shit on a shingle? When did we decide that France was one of the "good guys" that we could work with??

2. right now they are grasping at anything that might show they are doing

something except egging isreal on. but it is meaningless without the imput of Lebanon it looks to me like.

3. Well, they did change "freedom fries" to "French fries" again

in the congress' cafeteria, so I guess it's okay for * to actually talk to them again.

4. Yes, now it's all about France and the UN

Entities that they couldn't bash and disparage enough they now have to turn to in order to help minster to the incredible downward spiral of world events that they kicked off with their Neo-con bullshit.

Condi looked absolutely ridiculous this morning when she wouldn't discuss what the US would do if Iraq turned into civil war because that was a "hypothetical". That was her mantra and she stuck with it.

5. So that they can scapegoat France should anything go wrong

They still hate the French. The US is in deep trouble because we are the rogue nation internationally. The French offer some cover. And the Bushies can always turn on them and blame them if things don't go right. It's a typical Repub 'cover your ass' operation.

Although, to be fair, Bush tends to look at everything through red, white and blue colored glasses.
