It seems that an American has won the Tour De France for the EIGHTH time in a row, this year. Didn't the Italians also kick their asses in the World Cup? Not to take away anything from the great Italian team, but Zedane pretty much surrendered the match, by getting thrown out. Jaque Chirac hailed him as a homecoming hero afterwards, which turned some heads.
Here's the big story: The American who won the Tour De France this year, Floyd Landis, is scheduled for hip replacement surgery later this year. That's right, this American rode through a boatload of pain, to beat all comers. This includes more than just the French, of course, but it is they who are the easiest to make fun of, for the purpose of this post.
VIVE LA FRANCE! May you live to get your ass kicked again and again. Guess what? The good freinds that we are, we'll be there to bail your sorry asses out of the next mess you get into (see picture).

Second, although it may be severely easy to make fun of France from an American standpoint, there are an equal amount of embarassing stereotypes that they have of us Americans. FOR EXAMPLE:
-We're all fat
-We're all lazy
-We breathe Coca-Cola
-Breakfast, lunch, dinner and every "snack" can be found on a big bright board surrounded with golden M's
-We're all outrageous nationalists (even more so than the notorious Italians)
...I think you get the idea. SO, as I hope I have made myself so abundantly clear, we are no better than the French people who we love to make fun of so dearly.
