Not Funny

I'm hoping it's a satire site. With my luck, it's not.

"Send Liberty Back".

All this stupid anger directed at France for not supporting the U.S.'s desire to be a bully is ludicrous. "Freedom Fries" is stupid, as is Freedom Toast, Freedom Ticklers (ribbed for her pleasure!), Freedom kissing, and so forth.

The attitude in general that many have taken over France's "betrayal" is small-minded and cruel, about up there with taking it as a personal affront when someone in your office drinks the last of the coffee and forgets to make more.

You inconvenienced me, therefore I'll hate you forever.

Beg pardon? Disagree (which you have every right to do), and I'll hate you forever.

Doesn't that sound like the tactic more of a three-year-old than a mature nation? What's next, flat-out temper tantrums?

Waaaaah! Waaaaaaaah! Waaaaaaaah!

And particularly when it's France we're talking about, as if they never did us a single favor. Like back us in our revolutionary ardor, our fight for liberty. French soldiers fought for George Washington during the American Revolution. And you want to send back the Statue of Liberty?

Although, given the assaults of the past couple years on American liberties, maybe the statue shouldn't belong to us anymore anyway.
