Stupid, the way only the French can deliver it

Images of Kerry windsurfing, however, undermine all of the senator's attempts to prove himself the culturally conservative equal of George W. Bush. The election will be decided this year in culturally conservative areas such as Missouri, Ohio, North Carolina, and Wisconsin. Bush's strength of conviction and rancher style plays well in these areas. John Kerry's cultural liberalism has not.

I recommend you start going out and drinking on your Friday nights, instead of sitting home and berating the French like a little mincing prat for something that they, as a nation, do not exclusively do (question the nationality/manhood of a sitting officeholder).
 
Doesn't making fun of the french get a little old? I mean, all of the jokes were stale ten years ago.
 
The "much ado about Edwards's haircut" not recent enough for you?

I do like how your first reaction to my posting of a genuinely funny article is to immediately run to a "THEY DO IT TOO" response, especially one with just a smidge less patent absurdity.

Plus, you also take up the unenviable position of defending the French. The FRENCH dear boy.

You could've at least read the comments from the Frenchies:

Jogging is an addiction like a drug addiction. If some people like jogging, so be it. If some people like pot or some other substance, so be it. Myself, I don't do either, but who am I to prevent other people from doing what they like and which harms no one else? Frankly, I find drug users better company than joggers.

When the officers run, the troops worry... A still valid principle.

Yeah, because you REALLY posted it because of your jovial nature and not for some post-hoc self-serving America-centric notion of "FRANCE BAAD; 'MERICA GUUUD!"

:lol:
 
I'll assume the smiley is your being sarcastic, but still. Just because you phrase it with DUUUUR STOOPEED diction doesn't mean America isn't better than the French. :p
 
Well, evidently RS is a nationalist. Hoo-ray for that. You stand among a long line of massive intellectuals, like Bill O'Reilly, Toby Keith, and that one Wal-Mart greeter with a prosthetic claw arm.

This, of course, is not bad in and of itself (though it is unarguably absurd). But, when playing the role of an intellectual (at least, when not playing the "I was kidding/I was not kidding and now I'll make this serious discussion debate amongst oneself" game), taking relative nationalism into pure, absolute, and unalterable standards ("everything American is better than all things French"), well, frankly...the intellectuallism RollingSkull feigns has been dropped altogether.

You may as well try to posture as an enlightened intellectual and conseuqently debate the factual and absolute superiority of the Xbox 360 over the PS3.

So, yeah...jogging. Boy howdy, we here in the USA have *NEVEREVEREVER* questioned athletic activity as inherently American or Unamerican. This is only true, of course, because soccer is an activity played by homos and sissies, and it isn't real sport. Much unlike, say, darts, poker, and billiards. ;)

[quote name='RollingSkull']And Myke, if I were seriously motivated by anti-French sentiment, I'd have posted this: http://news.independent.co.uk/europe/article2730430.ece[/QUOTE]

No you wouldn't, because it flies in the face of the Republican "HOL-EE CRAP THE FRENCH ARE PUSSIES AND THEY ALWAYS RUN AND NEVER FIGHT HAW-HAW!!!" talking point.

So, the question remains, if you posted this in jest, where in the world do you indicate so in your OP? Was it when you said this:

That pretty much sums it up, but everyone who is still literate should pop on over and read the full thing for French leftist idiocy.

? Because that REALLY conveyed some oh-shucks joking and sarcasm to me.

Oh, got to go; a 45-hour Xenosaga FMV is over.
 
Hey, man, whatever floats your boat. Pigeonhole all you want. Now you don't even have to engage me. Because, honestly, real intellectuals? Wouldn't even bother with a dunderhead with the scarlet N branded on his forehead.

But seriously, just brand those "unintellectuals" as conservative, rather than nationalist, and stop kidding yourself. That way you can stop with the polite pretense that you regard people with whom you disagree politically as even in the same field of erudition as you.
