| French Web site to Send Bush Pretzels for Peace |
| 2003-03-18 |
| PARIS (Reuters) - U.S. citizens have turned on French fries and toast to vent their frustration at France's anti-war stance on Iraq. Now the French have joined in the food war -- with pretzels. I just got the image of John Belushi yelling "FOOD FIGHT!" in Animal House. A French Web Site is urging people to send pretzels to U.S. President, who fainted and fell off a sofa in January 2002 after gagging on the salty snack. The Web Site, www.bretzelforbush.com, says the pretzels will be stored at a secret location before being sent to the White House in a historic mass action. Its a "preztel" merde-head. You know, the same shape as the logic you use to "oppose the war, support american people, professing pacifism while building nuclear carriers and ballistic submarines, hate the imperialists war mongering fascists all the while constantly interfering in african affairs by invading it "for peace". The retaliation follows moves by some in the United States to change the names of French fries and French toast to Freedom fries and Freedom toast. The pretzels are on sale for seven euros ($7.56) each, with one euro going to a children's charity. So far some 250 euros have been raised for the charity. Do the math..... you know you want to "We think that to oppose war is not to be against the American people, but simply against the politics of the Bush administration," the Web Site says. Of course, since the french have been paying protection money to the same islamist organizations that slaughtered 3,000 of our people just a short time ago, we fail to understand their postion. We also fail to understand why they think Jerry Lewis is funny(except when hes trying not to be), garden snails are food, bathing is a not a just a good idea,but a necessity in polite society. We have nothing against the French themselves, but we dont particulary like their "uncle fester" leader Mr. Chirac. After the fainting incident, Bush lamented not heeding his mother's advice to chew pretzels before swallowing and his wife Laura joked he was now "practicing safe snacks." |

| #1 So the French, decent people that they are, want to send the President pretzels, evidently in the hope that he'll choke on one and die. Lovely people. I suppose we could retaliate and send them some sort of toxic food or other but that would be redundant since the French can already drink French wine whenever the mood strikes them. Real coals-to-Newcastle situation, this. |
