    "The French are a smallish, monkey-looking bunch and not dressed any
    better, on average, than the citizens of Baltimore. True, you can sit
    outside in Paris and drink little cups of coffee, but why this is more stylish than sitting inside and drinking large glasses of whisky I don't know." P.J O'Rourke (1989).

    "You know, the French remind me a little bit of an aging actress of the 1940s who was still trying to dine out on her looks but doesn't have the face for it." John McCain, U.S. Senator from Arizona.

    Nazis?" Dennis Miller.

    "It is important to remember that the French have always been there when they needed us." Alan Kent

    "They've taken their own precautions against al-Qa'ida. To prepare for an attack, each Frenchman is urged to keep duct tape, a white flag, and a three-day supply of mistresses in the house." Argus Hamilton

    "Somebody was telling me about the French Army rifle that was being
    advertised on eBay the other day -- the description was, 'Never shot.
    Dropped once.'" Rep. Roy Blunt (MO)

    Raise your right hand if you like the French ... raise both hands if

    Q. What did the mayor of Paris say to the German Army as they entered
    the city in WWII?

    The AP and UPI reported that the French Government announced after the London bombings that it has raised its terror alert level from Run to Hide. The only two higher levels in France are Surrender and
    Collaborate. The rise in the alert level was precipitated by a recent
    fire which destroyed France's white flag factory, effectively disabling their military.
