The United States of France?
First, do not miss my last post; in my own opinion, some decent, quick-hitting stuff.
I thought today's resolution by the U.S. House of Representatives to surrender in Iraq was incomplete in that there was not a clause calling for our country to be renamed the United States of France.
Nevertheless, the U.S. House of Representatives should certainly adopt the name of the lower house of the French parliament, Assemblée Nationale.
Oh, and I think we can now firmly affix the "e" to the title Madame Speaker.
And, for those offended by this American's observations, the names of the two pilots killed, when President Reagan asked for and was denied fly-over rights by the French Government when President Reagan wanted to retaliate against Libya for its role in the bombing of a Berlin disco that killed 2 U.S. Servicemen and wounded over 200 other innocents, are Capt. Fernando I. Ribas-Dominicci and Capt. Paul Lorence. The entire strike force, orginating in England, had its flight pattern extended by 2,600 miles which required multi mid-air refuelings and added to the difficulty of the strike. Maybe it didn't have an impact on the death of the Captains, but maybe it did.

lol funny. and you picked an obscure france being weenies reference though the families of the pilots killed don't think the event was obscure. keep the pressure on.
Your long memory serves a useful purpose once again. Thanks for not letting us forget these facts that should never be forgotten and need to be revisited from time to time.
Your assessment re: France and the House's resolution would be really funny if the matter weren't so serious, and embarrassing for the U.S. However, your musings are appreciated.
