4/13/18: Am I the only one who remembers when Fox News hosts were outraged because France refused to join the U.S. in the misadventure that would become the 2003 invasion of Iraq? In those days, at the urging of GOP lawmakers, a certain potato side dish in the congressional cafeteria would henceforth and forevermore be referred to as “Freedom Fries.”
I think we can all agree, nothing says, “Let’s tackle serious issues,” like Congress acting decisively regarding menu nomenclature.
Now I would like to note that France joined us in bombing Syria this week, as did the ever-dependable Brits. I would add that for ten years, thousands of French troops have served beside our U.S. fighting men and women in the bloody mountains and barren plains of Afghanistan.
I don’t know if they were served “Freedom Fries” at base
cafeterias or not.
Always ask for Freedom Ketchup with your Freedom Fries. |
