Hallelujah! Jack has been a pain in the @$$ for quite some time. Although, I wonder how much of that is France and not neccessarily their leader. It is good to see this schmuck's power fading, though. Real corruption and deceit eventually catchss up with you...
Mark's Remarks
I hope the French finally throw out this moron on his ear! This guy loved Saddam Hussein! He gave him nuke technology, for goodness sake! I hope the French people take back their government and restore sanity to old Europe.
John Kerry Delinda Est!
