While the political drama plays out on the world stage the US House of Representatives apparently isn’t above a little performance art of it’s own. In a move that is certain to have the French quaking in their boots the cafeteria menus in the House office buildings will change the name of French Fries and French Toast to Freedom Fries and as Freedom Toast.
Besides the fact that this is little more then a clever bit of propaganda it brings up the issue of “boycotting” various products made in countries that are not supporting the US in it’s efforts to invade Iraq. People say they are going to stop buying things made in France and Germany. But what about China? For crying out loud, how would it be possible to boycott goods made in China? Everything is made in China.
