6. If george wins the Nov election..would France allow me to apply for
citizenship in their country? Maybe Canada would be better..Where will I ever be welcome, as an Ex-American, thanks to George b.

2. France and the rest of the WORLD!
It was only a matter of time before something like this came out. France, Germany, Russia and the rest of the world knew that. "Let's just sit back and let the idiot hang himself." Voila!

5. Have some cheese, George
Better a cheese-eating surrender monkey than a brain-dead international pariah, schmuck.

My daughter speaks beautiful French. She could visit me in my new homeland.

I'd personally do better with Italian, but they hate us too.
No where to hide or start a new life after george demolishes the USA.

What a frightening thought..
george has stained us all.

7. Actually, looking on in horror
would perhaps be more accurate.

If there are laughs they are more expressions of utter contempt.

11. Would France , or any other country realize that many American citizens
are looking on in horror of george also? Can they feel any love or compassion for the Americans who have lost their nation to the secret, arrogant regime?
Geez I am beginning to understand what my German ancestors felt when they came to this country.

They were certainly NOT supporters of Adolph Hitler, but chose never to speak the german language out of the humiliation and fear of backlash they may receive in their new homeland, America, by letting on that they were once people of Germany.

How sad this is.
Where do we go if george taints the election process again?

10. not so much
For once any notion of "We told you so" is considered not-PC.
And since the torture cases the head-shaking has given way to pure horror.

13. I agree that they see the horror at this point.
Many European countries have a more vivid recollection of bush's type of policy.
Because of their close proximity to other Euro nations, they are more likely to be completely aware of the "writing on the wall", as bush manipulates his way theough the Middle East.

More Europeans have seen this type of dictatorship before and understand its danger than most Americans do.

We are under the impression that this kind of government can only happen in other countries.
Many Americans are completely oblivious to the shift in American governance since the overthrough of our Nation by gw bush.

12. they are not laughing any more than we are
they are disgusted, appalled, and fearful of what this bunch of warmongering assholes will pull next.
