IMHO, I think that the fact that we liberated his country during his lifetime, and helped Blairs country to not speak German, that the favor was actually owed us. I think that Chirac and his whole country "Cheese eating surrender monkies" should just keep quiet.
If you read your history you would know that the Russians gave more to the effort in WW2 than the US. So, who do they owe? As for your monkey comment, we don't need that type of post here.

You are correct about the Russian effort. However the efforts of the US cannot be completely overlooked either.

And he was right. What have the British managed to accomplish so far?

Lapdog is a relative term, isn't it? I mean, if Blair is Bush's "lapdog", would that be liking saying that Chirac is Saddam's "lapdog"? Wouldn't that make Germany and Russia Saddam's "lapdog's," also?
Nuff' said.

Plus we opened the African and Italian fronts to take the heat of the russians
