Pardon my French - "Double-W"
What the bloggosphere is saying about Bush's visit... well, MSM is pretty tough on both sides of the Atlantic gap that Bush is trying to abridge.
Bill O'Reilly is calling for a boycott on French products, since Chirac doesn't declare Hezbollah a terrorist group. (Didn't that man say that he would never use the boycott weapon against anybody? That it was immoral? That it was to LEAVE THE SPIN ZONE???)
Meanwhile, The Sun reports that Chirac avoids speaking English in front of Bush .
It is sometimes easy to understand why Europeans have hostile feelings towards the U.S. At the same time, it is easy to understand why some Americans go "First Iraq - then France". There is something lacking here, and I believe the French word for it is cohabitation.
