No he wasn't - and he wasn't French either.

HTH!



It does. Now go to that page and seach (Ctrl F) for:

"In many ways, England's victory set the stage for the American Revolution."

and give some to consideration to the fact that this little country (UK) has
probably been the most steadfast and dependable friend you Yanks have ever
had (or ever will have). The really good news is that this 'special
relationship' will be affected *not* one iota by all your pathetic attemps
to niggle a few Brits with silly little references to skirmishes that were
not much more than family squabbles (and which provided more long-term
employment than even your own SETI project of more recent years).....

Now get a life, you sad little ****.

Corsican. Originally the island of Corsica belonged to Genoa IIRC, before
being given to France for some deal or other. They still speak Italian on
island I believe.



Very good and almost correct. Corsica is bilingual - French (the official
language) and a Tuscan dialect of Italian.

Why would we want one?

Interesting idea... Of course the USA actually carries all the
stigmata of a third world country. It has the rich elite and it has
the huge population living in abject poverty in shanty towns - I've
seen them, unfortunately.

As for GB being a near-third world country, as tiny as we are we have
the world's fourth biggest economy, so no, I really don't think so.

Oh yes they do, albeit a short one - like most other nations on this
plannit, it's mostly chicken**** hassling just to put a few bob into a very
few people's pockets at the end of the day. The truth is they ain't ever
done a single thing that wasn't 'important to their economy' - anyone who
thinks the D-Day Landings were anything different should Google "Torpedo
Junction" ( http://www.nps.gov/caha/torpedo.htm is a good one) and join up
the dots......

See, for instance:

Para 1: "The pivotal naval campaign that followed, one marked by conspicuous
instances of ignorance, frustration, and heroism, came perilously close to
knocking the United States out of World War II."

Para 4: "Despite warnings from their concerned subordinates as well as their
adamant British allies (who had broken the German naval code), the American
naval command seemed oblivious to the potential for impending disaster."

Para 6: "The British, who were quite aware of the dire situation at hand,
offered both recommendations and ships - and were rebuffed on both counts.
Unchallenged, the Germans intensified their assault, and the number of
sinkings continued to mount."

(Other examples of US military fiascos are far too many to to list.....)

If were a Yank I wouldn't worry too much about a bunch of Hollywood-boosted
BS history, what I *would* be worrying about is the future.......

Now, having said that, my last words on this ludicrous topic (notice
crossposting removed) are that I never actually met a Yank I didn't like and
I've met a few! (They're mostly like big kids! :-)

Of course you are right in a way about the poodle thing. Tony B. Liar
is GWB's poodle, but that certainly doesn't go for the rest of us.


But not forgetting the fact that he's a poodle to the ****wit the
merkins voted into office.

I suppose a pliable poodle is a better option than a psycho.

I'm always uneasy when the person in charge of the button can't even
pronounce what the button connects to properly.


Too many images here for my brain to cope with. What with merkins and
pliable poodles I'm too overcome to work out what the button connects
to properly.

California? Last I heard they were bankrupt. But the thought of the

I see you are free French. I presume you are talking about that Vichy

Sorry Kurt, could you explain? - That was a little unclear......







Or as the 'merkins would say 'UNCULAR'. Boom-Boom!
