heh we're a very tolerant people, for example the French have been mortal enemies for centuries yet we refrained from doing any more than calling them Frogs & making V-signs at them
I'm sure the French govt. tho might adopt it for sheer bloody mindedness

My French housemate has spent most of the day flicking V-signs at me because I'm the only person he knows who's in favour of a war in Iraq.
So I just remind myself; he's French, and I'm not.

I might give up french toast and french fries. I'd even give up french bread and french dressing, but if they make me give up french kissing there will be hell to pay.

Go France! 
I still think the idea of renaming American cheese "idiot cheese" is a rather good one.

Yeah, because a right-wing w*nker is just what we France needs right now. Chirac may be a ****, but he's better than Le Pen.

It's like what SNL said...
In the US, French fries became Freedom fries.
In France, American Cheese became Idiot Cheese...

I imagine that would take the sting out of any insult he might throw your way. It would for me at least.

It's a form of swearing when you hold fingers up at someone with your palm facing you, if you see what I mean.

It supposedly hearkens back the the English longbowmen who made the flower of French chivalry their *****es over and over again. Two fingers to pull back a bowstring.
The French supposedly cut the fingers off of captured archers.

i heard that same story about the middle finger itself, but it makes more sense with both fingers, i suppose.

That's not cheese. That's gastronomic assault.

"French fight back!"
The French do what now?
Now that the requisite French joke is out of the way, a more serious question--
Are we going to rename the French language to Freedomese?

American cheese is not cheddar. Please don't insult cheddar that way.

American Cheese, as it clearly states on the label, is "Processed Cheese Food."
Whatever the hell that means.
