@ mrstickball : "we don't like when people are anti-American", the same goes from anti-french americans, nobody likes being hated, and the "freedom fries" reaction/embargo was very unfair/intolerant to our choice not to help you war in Iraq. That's not if you were attacked in your own ccountry. People should respect other's choices. Moreover that was our president choice to use the veto, there were not even a referendum (even if 80% of French were against the war at that time). American Football and NASCAR racing? I don't like/don't care about the first one but I really like NASCAR (and I'm French, a sport that not broadcasted in France) as I like Formula One.

Actually, "french fries" were first made in Belgium, not France. Just like "french toast" was first made by a guy named French in New York I believe. So much for the idiocy of renaming these things because a few people were pissed off at France. I think I can accurately say that most Americans thought these sorts of things were petty and stupid, even if they disagreed with France's position on the war.

In any case, mrstickball just has poor tastes in sports ;) World football blows away American football any day!

This is one American who thought those idiots needed a slap in the mouth for that stupid crap. First of all one of American's biggest trademarks, The Statue of Liberty, was a gift from France. Without France the Americans of European descent would have never broken away from England in the 1770's. And the English language is damn near married to French words. Over half the words spoken here got Latin by way of France roots. "Post" & "Cancel" the option buttons for the posting area for an example. Original English or Anglo-Saxon is actually more foreign to the modern English ear than Middle English is with its heavy Norman French influence.

This just goes to show you the power thinktanks have over media to disseminate mind control in this country. Politicians need to be shot out of a cannon to the sun. They're worthless wastes of carbon. All of 'em. I'm being unfair but I don't give a doggone. Freedom Fries, Liberty Shakes all for wages that won't even get you an Apple Pie. HA!
