People hate taxes and love picking on the French – Tourism to France way down: “The Ministry of Tourism said at the end of July the 2005 summer season was set to be disappointing, despite better weather than the year before.” I believe the term for happiness at the misfortune of the French is "Chirac-enfreude."

Wait until next July when Lance Armstrong is no longer pulling Americans over there to watch the Tour. I boycotted the last 4 Tours but my brother in law went and said that the numbers of Americans this year outweighted the numbers of previous years. I wonder what the effect of Lance's retirement on the french tourism and economy will be in the next couple of years.

Putting that knob over boycotting the French. How pathetic....
