Quote from Maverick74:
Let me give you something to ponder. That nice little European system you got over there. You like that do ya? Well sir, before you leave, do me a favor and stop by Arlington National Cemetery in VA. And make sure to thank all those dead men for saving Europe for you. If it wasn't for the blood and treasure of this country, you French and Swiss would be speaking German. Oh wait, most of the Swiss already do. You see one of the reasons WHY Europe has all those sweet little benies is because we saved those countries, we re-built those countries and for the last 70 years, we Americans have SUBSIDIZED your defense. It must be nice when you don't have to write the check. I wonder how much free healthcare our little Frenchies would have if they had to arm a military. Because if we pulled out tomorrow, and I pray every night we will, the Russians will be sipping your coffee by breakfast. Don't worry about learning German, you'll be speaking Russian.
Don't forget, before you head out, Arlington National Cemetery. It's the least you can do dude. Thank them twice. Thank them for being the men that French men could never be. And you're welcome.
