#2 Next time, Mssr. Sarkozy, if the wife is going to act like she was raised by carnies, leave her at home.

#4 Wife and son were in Paris a couple of weeks back for three days. They had been traveling through Germany, Denmark, France and Switzerland. Wife said that the nicest and most helpful people she met were in Paris. She was really surprised, after all the discord before and after the start of OIF. One of the highlights of the trip was Paris.

Don't think I've forgotten what the French government and press did,

Government has changed. Press is still the same.

#8 Yup, and where I work has hosted some young French military from St. Cyr and I was glad to meet them.

I'm just concerned that the French public understand that what Chiraq did has very real consequences. We and the Iraqis have paid most of them, but there is a price owed from France too IMO.

Unfortunately, y'all are likely to pay it internally in the banlieus.
