I fear the joke is really on us, but in celebration of France's role (c'est bizarre) in the Lebanon-Israel-Hezbollah debacle, I am issuing a call for your best gag at the expense of the French. Here are a few to get the ball rolling:
1. An apocryphal Patton quote: "I would rather have a German division in front of me than a French one behind me."
2. From Jay Leno (back in the day): "I don't know why people are surprised that France won't help us get Saddam out of Iraq. After all, France wouldn't help us get the Germans out of France!"
3. Q: What Does "Maginot Line" mean in French?
A: "Speed bump ahead"
