The same government that has warrantless wiretaps on its own people? You're skeptical that we wouldn't monitor one of the most egregious committers of espionage against the US? Come again?

I, for one, would love to hear George Bush say the words, "Pepe Le Pew."

You saw "France" in the headline and, in some knee-jerk wingnut response, figured that you had to say something bad about it--it is France, after all. When you realized that you couldn't say something about the French surrendering, you fell back on plan B: saying that they're nutty.
"Kookoo" because--why? Governments don't spy on each other?
