Gosh, Europeans Are So Civilized
It seems those charming Belgians have got a new fad: peeing on Bush' face. And it seems the stickers were created at the Foreign Ministry. Nice.
This is the "Euro-Style" of diplomacy, eh?
*Correction: they were created in the Prime Minister's office. My bad.

"Belgium" IS, after all, one of the rudest, most offensive words in the galaxy...

Heh. And we're finding out why everyday.

They are just mad that they were even a smaller speedbump to the Germans than the French....

Wow. How classy. How dignified. I mean, I don't think that US congressmen were pissing on Chirac's face during the whole "Freedom Fries' era. So much for European cultural superiority.

Belgium is not long for this earth, either, thank God: the country takes another step towards its inevitable oblivion every day. Good riddance. A free Flanders, much the Netherlands, would be a genuine ally in Europe; as for basketcase Wallonia, even the French don't want it.
That much said, one must admit at least that they do make good beer and good chocolate. And they taught me to put mayonnaise on fries. :-)

Hmmm....dear, can we have "Freedom Sprouts" with that steak tonight?

Ken, I'm disappointed. You haven't made one crack yet about these Phlegmish speakers...

I wouldn't do that, Bingster. Too easy.
I do, however, have the phrase "delusions of relevancy" bouncing among the synapses.
