With all due respect Oz,
1. I think we've paid the French back and then some.
2. Their hatred for England was their real motivation to help us 200+ years
ago.

Now that is funny!

Are you really that ignorant of American history,

Or is the American dislike of the French because they owe them for
their freedom?

Agreed on both points. But it doesn't change the facts.

BTW it's been cool for us ex-colonials to diss the French since day 1.
For example see what Mark Twain has to say about them.
