France unhappy? Remind them of D-Day

I wouldn't want to leave the Hatians to suffer for some dumb thing the French had to say. We should just do what we always do---ignore the French.

Reality mirrors internet legend.

Then there was a conference in France where a number of international engineers were taking part, including French and American. During a break one of the French engineers came back into the room saying 'Have you heard the latest dumb stunt Bush has done? He has sent an aircraft carrier to Indonesia to help the tsunami victims. What does he intended to do, bomb them?' A Boeing engineer stood up and replied quietly: 'Our carriers have three hospitals on board that can treat several hundred people; they are nuclear powered and can supply emergency electrical power to shore facilities; they have three cafeterias with the capacity to feed 3,000 people three meals a day, they can produce several thousand gallons of fresh water from sea water each day, and they carry half a dozen helicopters for use in transporting victims and injured to and from their flight deck.. We have eleven such ships; how many does France have?'

Chavez said that over the weekend, that we were there for something other than aid. However our planes couldnt land with supplies due to politicians landing for photo ops to look good.

I think if that is the case, then we need to "aid" Venezuela and "help" Chavez out, too.
