Congress attacks France

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.

For me, it's not so much stupidity (well, OK, it is, but...) as it is abject childishness. Then again, watch the Commander-and-Chimp when a reporter asks him a question that is either not on the Approved List or that the C&C had forgotten the pat answer to. His brow furrows, and he gets this perplexed/frustrated/petulant look on his face, like he Needs A Nap. Sad to say, it looks like it's catching.
