Freedom Fries

What The Fuck Are Those?
CBS News article
The link above is to an online article entitled "Do You Want Freedom Fries With That?" It basically describes that the House of Respresentatives recently decided that in their cafeterias would no longer serve "french fries" but instead they would now be called "freedom fries." Let me say before launching into my points that I think that is the most retarded fucking thing that I have ever heard.

First of all let me toss a little clue to those of you who are culinarily challenged. Although the origin of the "frech fry" is somewhat controversial, it is commonly believed that this lucious product originated in Belgium. Fries are a large part of Belgian culture and are served in at stands equvalent to that of hot dog stands in New York City with the favorite topping in Belgium being mayonnaise. Idiots from the United States are the only people who call them french fries. The English call them "chips," the Belgians call them "patats" (not the word for potato) and even the French themselves call them "pommes frites" which means fried apples. So, in fact the "
french fry" has little or nothing to do with France other than the fact that French people eat them as well as every other fucking person on the planet.

Now onto the other facets of this issue. Are our lawmakers that pathetic that all they have to do in chambers is get together and figure out how they are going to hate on the French. And the funniest part is the best they could come up with is renaming the fries in their cafeteria to "freedom fries."

Rep. Bob Ney, R-Ohio, chairman of the House Administration Committee had this to say:
"
This action today is a small but symbolic effort to show the strong displeasure of many on Capitol Hill with the actions of our so-called ally, France."
These geniouses even went as far as to rename the "french toast" to "freedom toast." Is it just me or does that sound like god damn baby talk. Its like our politicians are sitting around going "Well if they are not going to play in our little war game, then we are not going to acknowledge their presence."

I hope that France does use its veto power in the United Nations to not allow the UN to get involved in this little "cock-showing" of a war. In fact, I have another recommendation, I think that in retaliation, the French should change the word "American" to the word "stupid fucking moron" just to show their displeasure with our politics....oh wait, the French won't do that because they have better stuff to do with their time like fuck and eat.
