The "freedom fries" phenomenon has spread to the House of Representatives. Ironically, if it weren't for France, we might still be calling them "chips."

I'm not sure what bothers me more, the raging xenophobia or that people have to be so stupid about it.

When I first read this, my first reaction was to smite my forehead. My second reaction was to muse about whether this means, given my Québécois/Acadian ancestry, whether I now have to call myself a "Freedom-Canadian".
