Pat Dollard | Young Americans

“I agree with those who cite the residual anti-French sentiment we retain from our British roots. It must have begun there. Oldfrog makes some very good points.

I’ve also always thought there was a rivalry between France and the US because France dominated the Western world in many ways for a long time, and has made a greater contribution to Western civilization than any other civilization since the ancient Greeks (if you ask me). But in the last century or so, it’s been America that is dominant on the world scene, and I think, on some level, America resents that the French ever held the position of dominance. America is jealous. It burns America’s ass that France continues to assert itself. America thinks France’s time has passed and that it should sit back and shut up.

The fact that the French frequently “dare” to stand up to the US annoys Americans, certainly (and thank god France does stand up to the US). The American ego is monstrous. The only thing that allows Americans to maintain the illusion that they are superior to every other people is their own ignorance. They know nothing about the French mentality or history and, thus, cannot analyze the behavior of the French. They have no grasp of the principles that French opposition and advice are based on (humanism, socialism, the républicain ideal). They simply see it as arbitrary opposition and they don’t bother to look any further. That’s the problem with Americans. The endemic laziness and lack of intellectual curiosity in that culture that will be its undoing.

I’m convinced that the entire surrender monkey thing is based on that Life magazine photo of the Frenchman crying as the Nazis entered Paris (http://bp0.blogger.com/_eR4-1Xi0_3Y/RfS1xU_lvkI/AAAAAAAAATM/iewY1abCdyY/s1600-h/1817609.jpg). That’s about all Americans know of recent French history, and they are not in the least bit motivated to learn more. They are, as a culture, disinclined to question their own assumptions or to question what they are told. It is sad and scary; an ignorant superpower is a terrifying thing.

When France tries to reason with the US, when France tries to advise the US based on its significant wisdom and experience, America acts like a recalcitrant teenager who knows it all and refuses to listen. I had a teenager, I know what I’m talking about.”

uh ?

Hey Franchie, ever hear the famous Shakespeare line “Me thinks thou do protest too much.”? It means when someone gives their guilt away by defending themselves too much,too strongly.

Sounds like Mr. Sanchez struck a nerve.

Franchie

Yeah, they’re called Leftists. And if they had their way we’d also be a nearly-third world European country like…

Then I think there’s a 75% chance you require serious meds if you think that 75% of Americans agree with the opinions expressed in your post, regardless of the source.. It’s obvious in much of your other posts. You don’t think anymore, you just have a reflexive, thoughtless, anti-normalcy, anti-establishment, anti-American attitude like an old French lady pretending she’s a beret-wearing Marxist at a French cafe during the heydey of Dadasim and the rise of Marxism. Those dreams are dead, sweetheart, catch up with the times.

If France is the “incarnation of everything that could be wrong with a country,” what is Saudi Arabia? Pakistan? North Korea?

Sarkozy or no Sarkozy. It will take several millennia for the French to catch up. Too little too late.

And yes…it’s true. Every french-influenced art-fag that I run across is just as snotty, snooty, & toffee-nosed as one could possibly imagine.

So bite me and lick me froggies….

Gotta love Matt Sanchez. There are however, many countries in the world worse than France. Sudan. Somalia, Pakistan, Iran…all POS’s far worse than France.

I think Matt Sanchez was addressing the arrogance of the idiots on the set…and doing it in French… to boot…

From that aspect of his comments, I’d agree with him.

As to who is worse France or Iran or the Sudan…well that’s pretty obvious.

john, then he isn’t a political actor

Dan, the both countries share the same level of “arrogance”, the fact is you are more numerous, therefore the major player

good on you matt!
anybobdy know where to find the full vid of that interview?

“Never trust the French or the Baptist” Mark Twain

drillanwr & franchie

While working in Saudi Arabia, I came to know numerous English people. Here is what they taught me.

The English: A group of people who are taught from birth that their cultural heritage lays rightful claim to all inventions of human civilization, including bipedalism and the opposable thumb. The English have no use for encyclopedias, as all knowledge may be conveniently obtained by tuning into the BBC (Burning Bush Channel). Thanks to the English, the world was changed from flat to round. The female breast was invented by an Englishman. Seafaring ships existed long before the English, but it was the English who came up with the idea of floatation, which revolutionized international transport. Ask any Englishman what Shakespeare’s greatest achievement was, and he’ll tell you it was the man’s brilliant decision to be born in England. It is no coincidence that the Queen of England elected to rule England rather than any other country. The Irish parked their nation as close to England as possible so they could savor the English scent blowing in the wind. The national motto of Scotland is “We Border England!” Before the English consented to participate in athletics, all soccer balls were cubic in shape and made of wood. The English invention of guile and deception is at the foundation of the world’s present misconception that the United States landed on the moon (Pink Floyd was there first). Prior to English decree, water was not fit for human consumption. There is more oxygen in England than anywhere else. The English language is the only language in the world that contains the word “wonky.” And you may rest assured that it was the English who taught the world to despise the French. If you doubt it, watch any episode of “Yes, Minister.”

Sadly, English rule of Planet Earth came to an end with the advent of The Spice Girls. They are now the favored housepets of Americans, with hedgehogs running a close second.

Hey Franchie,

I think Pat wanted a real picture of you. not just one stolen from a website somewhere

I just think its funny to hear a French person say something to someone else about arrogance.
I definitely agree that french food is better than German or English. but that wouldnt take much really. unless you like Sauerkraut and sausage. or blood pudding

I like Italian food myself. thats my weakness. lasagna

As far as an overall opinion of France. I dont really have one either way. my life has never been impacted by it either way. I do like the fighting style of Savate though. being into martial arts i do look that

Frenchie:

As usual you are full of yourself.

@Pat,

My money is on Alyssa. Like that weirdo pic is a real pic of Frenchie? LOL. I doubt it. That’s not to say Marshall Petan (aka Frenchie) is no weirdo. Any pinhead that comes in here claiming that 75% of Americans side with her is smoking something besides cigarettes.

The vast majority of us in “Dollard Nation” think the bitch Frenchie is an idiot. We laugh at her retarded comments.

But in all seriousness, I’m all for a chick fight. Let’s all place our bets. I got 500.00 bucks on alyssa. Any takers?

Kevin M
I hate to sound like the village grammarian, but employing “German” and “English” in the same sentence with “cuisine” grates on my nerves. It’s like saying “Arab Humanities” or “Saudi Justice.”

ME: Kev, I live to learn …
————————————————————

Kurt -

YES! The Italians pretty much rule the food world.

There are so many different styles of Italian.

I never was big on lasagna (although I do make it for my oldest daughter and the son-in-law) … and my sauce is the best. That comes from having worked in a couple of private/family-owned Italian rests. … What I learned there was how NOT to make sauce. As my 1/2 Italian s-i-l puts it “Italians don’t know how to make sauce … Takes a Hunkie.”

Anyhow, my favorite Italian style is Tuscany … As a matter of fact, were I to visit Italy, you can keep the rocky ruins of Rome … I’ll take the Tuscan country-side …

Speaking as someone with a French background, personally, I prefer being an American. The French culture and their attitude just plain sucks. I grew up in French culture and rejected it wholeheartedly.

The wine was good, so was the food. But I’m partial to German cuisine. Faced with a European trip to England France or Germany…I’d pick Germany in a heartbeat.

Faced with the choice of being French first or American first. I chose America first. I’d rather be the “bad ass” that everyone loves to hate…than the wimpy country that can’t even conduct a proper Anphib landing on a beach.

The point of French fighting-style is well taken Kurt my brother infidel. I like the Israeli and Russian styles. But I do a mixed style myself…

Other than that, France is good for nothing…Although, I like Sarko. At least he has some good sense….The reduction of French nukes wasn’t a smart idea, however…especially considering the Chinese build-up of nukes and the Russian arsenal that remains huge.

@Pat:

That was no pic of Frenchie. She’s probably some fat old hack sitting at her apartment in Belgum with a cigarette in one hand, a bottle of cheap wine in the other, doing everything in her power to make her lazy fat-ass wider than it already is. LOL

Drill

I would do it in a heartbeat. Hey maybe if i start looking like Tony Soprano ill just decide to stay there and form my own mafia branch lol either way it would be a fun trip.

The great weight challenge

Kurt(the infidel)

We’ll find ya a nice Italian girl to bring back and cook for ya …

Cheers to that!

Americans think of France as hallowed ground.

What pisses us off is when the French start to “assert its (arrogant) self” with all its “its significant wisdom and experience” and then we end up having to pay for it with more Americans blood.

We’re screwed, if its the same “wisdom and experience” that brought about the fall and rise of the “Vichy Regime”.

Dan, your only the epitome of your paradigme ;
do I look to you arrogant so ?

well, in the Dollard Nation there are different persons, more or less like you, but fortunately different ; apparently they don’t all share exactly your beliefs

I’ll take German food over French any day. Give me Bratwurst, Brown Bread, hot mustard and a good German brew anyday. Yeah and I like Schnitzel too. Yager Schnitzel is the bomb. I’ll do a prost with a German long before I’d have one with a Frenchie.

Zum Wohl!

WHERE IS THE REST OF THE INTERVIEW !!!!

I need more of this.
This little piece is very nice but come on where is the REST!

Now, Now, children, let’s keep the debate civil. There’s too much name-calling, etc. Having said that, I’ve been to France more than once. I never had any negative interaction with any of the natives. I attempted to use my less-than-stellar high school French to communicate and managed to get along. There are arrogant people on both sides of the pond. Sanchez might have been over the top a bit but I think his point is that the leftist-socialist form of democracy practiced by much of Europe and lusted after by the democRats in our Congress, has failed the people miserably. They have become so blindingly PC that they are letting the muslim vermin start to dictate policy based on the “I’m insultated so you must change” mindset. Inane, insane and unacceptable to us “arrogant Yanks”.

Europe, grow a pair for crying out loud.

Unfortunately it’s in French.

seems I am moderated

hey the freedom of speech ?

hegelbot,

seems your braindidn’t absord the wiseness of your quoted master

as far as what is is said in the example of an american opinion that I put on board, I didn’t say I appoved the whole, just find it amusing and warmful to my “arrogant” soul

It seems though that you forgot that the Frenchs brought you a lot of vocabulary that your expressing in english

your historical resumé got to be digged a little bit, escuse me if it doesn’t fit the spirit of Hegel

They did look a little shocked by the response they got from Matt… LOL! Definitely a “You can’t handle the truth!!!” moment!

Frenchie:

“hey the freedom of speech ?” Read the fine print “It ain’t about free speech you’re in a private domain”. Pat’s website. Pat’s perogative.

Gee, seems like a don’t have to respond to that French putin. Seems like everyone else has done my job quite nicely for me.

Happy Easter, Dollardians.

Dan, are you paid to patrol this “private” place ?

or is it your evangelical creationist institution that gave you the autorisation ?

you don’t like me, and I don’t like you, so we are quite !

there are people who come here that appreciate my “alternative” voice

Alyssa,

my hat down, your classy

To Franchie: Thank God for English common law. We are innocent until proven guilty. In Napoleonic law, guilty until proven innocent, that is hard to do when you are behind bars for three months.
The English gave us the Magna Carta, a prelude to the greatest document in the world; The U.S. Contitution.
Remember you did help us during our War of Independence, but you did it not because you loved the idea of our U.S.freedom and liberty, but your own self-interest is the reason; plus to get back at England for the loss of Canada.
Remember to take good care of those American military graves in France. That is the least or perhaps the only thing that we expect of you.
I need a beer.

@Frenchie:

“Dan, are you paid to patrol this “private” place ?”

me: No chu-chu. If that were true you’d be gone.

“or is it your evangelical creationist institution that gave you the autorisation ?”

me: LOL. You can’t spell either huh?

“you don’t like me, and I don’t like you, so we are quite !”

me: Quite what? You’re right, I dislike you like a bad tooth. I could care less what your opinion is of me.

“there are people who come here that appreciate my “alternative” voice”

me: Bullshit quisling. You’re only here because the boss-man still tolerates you. But that’s the only reason you’re still here. So don’t flatter yourself chickey.

@Pat

Thank you for that explanation. Many of us wondered what happens to our comments and we end up hitting the submit button more than once. Well, now we know. Thanks.

Franchie does one excellent job in holding her own with a foreign language. And those of you, like jarhead58 who remind all of us of the presence of the French in the Revolutionary war, hear! hear! While the government of France may have had ulterior motivations in supporting the fledging Revolutionary Army, many of their military experts and citizens who joined our forces were here because they believed in our cause.

A reminder is that the motto of their 1799 Revotution was Liberty, Equality, and Brotherhood. The end result differed because, unfortunately, there are too many who find hatred and vengefulness intoxicating and powerful.

The reader who wrote that the true villian is liberalism/socialism that has infected France is correct. It has also infected the Germans who had a strong reputation of being efficient and dedicated fighters. It has neutered the British - who would have thought that British Marines/sailors would have surrendered their boat to the Iranians?

Let’s save our energy to batter the Saudis, PLO, that Islamofacist Obama, and that Socialist Clinton. Not Franchie, who is, after all, a Sarko supporter and therefore, one of us through and through!

Q. Why are the streets of Paris lined with trees?

A. Because the Germans like to march in the shade!

london calling ,I have seen your pseudo on “fuckfrance.com”, get the fuck out there, I bet simplefrench still makes some pâté out of you

Who did the fuckfrance.com site? Now that’s riot.

franchie

” … I have seen your pseudo on “fuckfrance.com” … ”

Sorry to disappoint you, old fruit, but I’ve never been on that site.

london calling, then you don’t know what your missing

Dan, I am pleased to be repertoried in your crusade office files, get it

drill, then your sense of humor isn’t so flavored !

Drill

nothing to be relied with classy or not classy with LC’s joke, but more with its “easyness” for not saying “laziness”, but Im supposing that the english humor isn’t anymore what it used to be

Kurt,

I was told that this “penis chart size” would hurt

Frenchie:

“Dan, I am pleased to be repertoried in your crusade office files, get it ”

You mean like file 13? Yep that’s where you belong alright. Get it? LOL

And a gun in the hand of a useless lib like you is such a waste of icons; much like your grey matter is just so much fecal matter. Get it?

You might want to leave the firearms quips up to those of us that are good with them….like me.

Go on back to your wine and cheese quisling.

Dan, nothing new under the sky, oops, hell

Drill, you might not consider that’s a BS propaganda for frustrateds instead of behind’s truth, uh, that’s says it

drillanwr, Kurt

My all time favorite has to be Fawlty Towers. Perfect.

You guys are pretty damn good at it too. I can’t get enough of Scrubs at the moment.

Kurt

If you’re talking about Red Dwarf …

A little background on the story/plot

The young black guy was some glorified janitor-type on some space station. He illegally brought on a cat and sent the station system into some sort of tizzy (London, if you’re in on this show, correct me if I’m wrong please) …

Anyhow, The kid goes into hyper-sleep (can’t recall what happens to the rest of the crew of the station but I think they all die) … He comes out of deep sleep centuries later to find the cat he brought aboard had been pregnant and over the generations had “evolved” into the [other] black guy dressed like Little Richard (he has this little spray bottle he goes around spraying everything, as if ‘marking his territory’ like a male cat … ).

It’s been awhile since I saw the show … I think the pompus guy is actually a hologram from the ship’s past that knew the kid … and then there’s the robot guy … It’s pretty cool.

Hey, after you’ve watched enough, Kurt, we’ll start using “SMEG” on the site as a cuss word … heh!

London Calling

Im gonna have to check fawlty towers out

Scrubs is one of my favorite shows. just ended not too long ago but reruns will be around for a long time i hope.

LC

Cant believe i let that little gem pass me by. thats a funny ass show. just watched about 5 clips on youtube. John Cleese has been pretty big over here for a long time. he was funny in rat race. and who could forget monty python, genius!

http://img530.imageshack.us/img530/3039/fatmanay6.jpg

yeah, I (we are) am scared… in the lavatories, my (our) ears are hurting

I see , you learnt history in the booklet of the survivor : ” how to make my dreams come true”

“George Patton dissimulait une grande sensibilité, sous des dehors bourrus et un langage de charretier. Il était très soucieux du sort de ses hommes et justifiait sa façon de faire la guerre, qui privilégiait le choc et la vitesse, en disant qu’elle permettait d’économiser le sang. Un de ses hobbies était d’écrire des poèmes. Il croyait en la réincarnation et était persuadé d’avoir été au cours d’une de ses vies antérieures un général de Napoléon.”

I am sure that man never said such a rude sentence, that has been lauched on the net by frustrated ignorants to bash the Frenchs

He was Eisenhower’s friend, who said that he received a great help from our Resistance

Let me bring this comment section back to the original topic. Matt Sanchez you rock dude. I expect a Marine to stand up to ignorant assholes like those French so-called talking heads.

That you served your country and are still serving the brothers in arms is a stellar achievement.

Keep up the good work. I read your stuff on WND. Can’t get enough of your great reports since I pay no attention anymore to the slimeballs in the LLMSM. When I want reporting on the GWOT, I go to my own sources, “Dollard Nation” WND or some of the other great alternative media sites.

Semper Fi bro.

Steve m:

That’s too funny. I love sparring with Frenchie. She takes every comment on France personal. What a dope. The argument always seems to be about her and her poor dainty Marshal Petan French sensibilities.

On the lighter side I do the same thing with my own French relatives. I love fucking with them too. Only at least with them I get to duke it out once in awhile. Shit, that’s half the fun!!!! Fuck the French.

drillanwr:

Glad you think so.

Steve m:

Frenchie must of had her wine and cheese and is all snuggled up in her bed while men and women of valor protect her right to be an ass.

Good joke BTW. I’m going to have to borrow that one from ya.

Dan, Steve, Drill,

one thing that I am sure is that if your military heads read your comments, they’ll feel very sorry, cause that’s not the image they want to show of America.

That’s not the spirit they have.

And in the perspective to ask more soldiers from our country that should help you, I am afraid, if Sarko read what your writing, I bet he ‘ll think about it twice

Your the shame of your country. Fortunately, I met people here that helps me hoping that America’s dream is not quit over

Here’s my take.

The whole English/French thing is the remnant of a family feud.

If you go back in history to 1066 and the battle of Hastings you’ll realize that William the Conqueror ( from what is now modern day France ) took over England. After he did that he surveyed everything, and i mean everything, that the forerunners of modern day England owned and put it in a book. He considered all that stuff, down to a farmers fence etc, his property. I assume he did so in order to raise money through taxes.

William the Conqueror also set up an administration system that included judges and civil administrators. It was the first time that the rule of law was established anywhere in the world, and my guess is that he did it so that he didn’t have to spend time handling affairs directly in his new possessions. This system evolved in to the British administartive system which in no small way led to the development of the British empire, and as a result, the Magna Carta, and arguably, even the American system of democracy had it roots in the chain of events started by William the Conqueror.

A few hundred year later, at the Battle of Agincourt, the “English” came back across the channel and handed the “French” their butts. I think we’re still feuding today.

At 53 years old I’m learning to speak French. I travel to France a fair amount as a pilot for FEDEX. I’d have to guess that 1/3 of our words in English have french roots, and that might be conservative.

I like the French people. Yes, they’re aloof and sometimes quite arrogant. Ever been to New York? Same thing. They’ve got no monoploy in the arrogant department.

However, I’ve found the French quick to smile and easy to get along with if you just don’t cop an attitude.

Matt probably needed to say what he said, but it also could have been better handled.

Just my opinion, for whatever it’s worth.

Keith Knoblauch

drill,

uh, are you so provincial ? in CA, they know the signification

Franchie

“Your the shame of your country. Fortunately, I met people here that helps me hoping that America’s dream is not quit over”

Maybe you ought to also visit the American Cemeteries in Normandy. My family came to this country in 1883 and, with the exception of the Spanish-American War, has fought in EVERY war, including this one, since including the two to save the sorry, inept, assess of your “noble” ancestors. I can’t speak for Dan but would bet a similar service to country in his family tree exists as well.

So the French have an “insight” into the Muslim world that we could only dream of?..I think it’s more like not being able to see the forest for the trees. Your country is being eaten away from the inside. When the next muslim riots occur in Paris let’s see the force that’s used to quell them, the hunting down those responsible, and actually some concrete action taken by your Gov’t. France loves to talk, but doesn’t walk the walk. We can see it from across the Atlantic, you can’t because you wallow in it.

I am blessed to live in a country that in 230+- years has so convincingly surpassed anything Europe has ever put forward in its long history. A country of people that actually work hard, out perform, and out produce all of Europe combined.

You have no idea of what the American dream is or how it’s attained. It in no way resembles the French Socialist model.

And who can resist yet one more……..
