Today I went to the store and bought a bottle of French Wine. I'm not a big wine drinker but I had to support my French brothers. The French have made the Nazi-cons looks like complete fools which is why the Nazi-cons seem to try to attack the French at every corner. The French said their were no WMD, guess what, THERE ARE NO WMD. God bless the wise group of people that stood up against the Nazis.
When exactly did the french stand up to the Nazis?

Don't be an ass.
1,385,000 French soldiers died; 361,000 were declared missing; 4,200,000 were wounded in WWII and I. They fought like tigers, but the made a mistake in underestimating Germany and not expanding thier defenses as Maginot originally planned. No one had seen that sort of fast moving combined arms warfare before, especially the offensive use of mechanized formations. It was just unheard of and they were not ready for it.
I would hope you would give thier struggle and dead the same respect you would give US casualties...but that seems to be too much to ask.
Contrary to popular belief they didn't give up without a fight and actually held the Germans with no help from us in WWI while we sat back and got rich selling stuff to Europe prior to our entry in the war.
Be an ass and make assinine comments and you'll get responses like that. Barney was making a correlation between Nazi's and the current admin. My response to his tripe was deserved. Now I do respect the fallen so don't try to play the bleeding heart game or if you must - atleast be consistant by slamming his remarks too. Bring tripe to the table - expect to get it back.
