France Kisses The Heels Of Another USA Hater - I'll Never Go Back
By Dennis M. Becklin

The French are beyond a second salvation by America. In 1944, Paris was liberated by America and her allies, though a French armored brigade was given the ritualistic opportunity to enter Paris one day before the Americans. After a boot kissing welcome for Nazi invaders in 1941, the French curtsied for 4-years to Hitler's thugs and managed to save Paris for future generations of tourists. In 2004, their boot kissing hero's welcome for Michael Moore's Bush bashing film at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival is the final straw for me.
I wouldn't support the loss of one single American life to again liberate France from its occupiers. After my 25-years of business dealings in France...and many, many business and personal trips...I will never set foot in France again.
"In 1940, German troops overcome the concrete defenses of the French Maginot Line by simply going round it. May 27 - June 4, in a massive exercise involving 299 British warships and 420 other boats of all sizes, a third of a million Allied troops are evacuated from the beaches at Dunkirk, under constant German bombardment. This leaves France at the mercy of the German army, which enters Paris on 14 June. June 10, Italy declares war on France and Britain.
June 22, France capitulates." www.unverse.com . . .
France capitulated...brave and noble warriors that they were. The French Vichy collaborators then spent 4-years entertaining their German tourists. www.sunderland.ac.uk . . .
On June 6, 1944, thousands of allied soldiers died on the beaches of Normandy, France, as they participated in the D-Day invasion of France...not to defeat and occupy France...but to defeat the Nazis to whom the French had capitulated 4-years earlier. www.army.mil . . .
Thousands of Americans still lie in graves on the coast of Normandy...while millions of French thumb their noses at America's efforts to liberate those oppressed by another dictatorial regime...Saddam Hussein's jack-booted henchmen and left-over terrorists.
In May, 2004, the French rejoiced at the spectacle of an American film maker, Michael Moore, vilifying George W. Bush, President of the United States of America. The international media, including America's, rejoiced at the awarding of the Cannes Film Festival's top prize, the Palme d'Or, to "Fahrenheit 9/11" by Michael Moore.

They can all go to hell as far as I'm concerned, and Michael Moore can shove the Palme d'Or where the sun don't shine.
The United States of America will be standing tall and making sacrifices for the freedom of the truly oppressed long after the America haters are left hiding in the battered turrets of their own Maginot Lines.
Let them eat CaCa.
