#1 The French make such a great whine.

#2 It's staggering (and somewhat gratifying) to think how much time/manpower/money the French have put in trying to discredit Lance.

#3 Xb. They don't spend money on defense. They are Socialist. They have some extra bux. They have to spend it somewhere. Ol' Lance's exploits are a swift kick in the ego...

#4 There is a very certain distinct french character type that is nasty, snide, nihilistic, jealous, vicious (in a small rodent sort of manner), utterly infantile, and beyond any hope of redemption. Not a majority of the population by any stretch but they are common. I wish he'd announce that he'll ride one more tour just as brutal punishment to the psyche of that particular segment of French society.

#5 He should keep riding until they shut the f*ck up.
If he tested positive for drugs in 1999 why havent we heard about it until now. Do they know it is 2005?
