Joe,
Turkey is more beautiful than France,
Thailand has richer history,
Uffizi has better Rennesance art collection and...
all those are NOT what makes the country.
People do...and you won't argue that Americans have spirit and zest for achievements second to none...
...and most of all,
is when country you describe is missing BACK BONE it once had,
this is really pathetic

I like the French Serge.
I had a French girlfriend once so I have an affinity for the French. I like that they aren't as obsequious as the English or us Australians who are far too keen to lick America's boot.
Sure the Parisians are rude and arrogant but France has the best wine in the world and the fois de gras is second to none. I love France and I'll be in Paris in early January after New Years in Amsterdam.
Who will meet me there for a beer?
