I'm quoting somebody from another board unrelated:

"French Fries" now "Freedom Fries!?"

"-Who cares, it's just a step a congressman took not something the government if forcing. He is just irritated with the French leader and so is a majority of the US.

French owned hotels in America have switched the french flag for an american flag. I hope a country is threatening the French one day so we can continually deny them the right to fight with UN approval. I know we wouldn't do that but it'd be funny.

John Stuart Mill explained it best when he said, "War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."

Perhaps the next time you march against the war, you should consider that the purpose of war is to make the world a safer place not only for ourselves, but for those we often go out of our way to defend. The policies which so many protesters seem to be against are the same types of policies that have kept this nation safe from tyranny and oppression for over 200 years."
