Heard the same thing this morning on the radio. I can't respond here with what I would really like too say, but I can say this: I WILL NEVER SPEND ANOTHER PENNY ON ANYTHING MADE IN FRANCE!!!!! That's my way of responding to these Saddam loving, American bashing cowards!!!If everyone did the same thing, IT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!

Well, I'm not giving up my C&D and R&T, but I'd gladly see Jerry Springer go. Guess I can find some other tires than BFG, that's coming up, we'll see. I don't even use the other stuff listed as it is. Wild Turkey? Then Jack it is!

UUUmmmm................ Don't forget the Statue of Liberty. It came from france.

You also forgot Allied Signal which includes Fram, Autolite, Prestone, and Garrett.

They act like a bunch of damn communists. I am all for a boycot on France (actually I'm all for a carpet bomb campaign on France), but it would hurt some Americans too. Many French products are made here in the sates by Americans (IE Bf Goodwrich tires) and a boycott on them could hurt us as well. Even Bill O'Reily is saying to leave certain chains like Motel 6 (French owned) out of the boycot. The French are guttless ingrates, and they deserve whatever they get. Meanwhile we will have our boycott, and rename our fried potatos to make our statement to them. I personally will never buy anything that even appears to be French.

The Statue of Liberty was a gift from old France. Returning it to the "new" France would hurt us more as the "new" France will melt it down and procede to build weapons that will be sold to country's like Iraq, Iran, Syria, North Korea.......well, you know the rest.
