I was wondering if the thread title was supposed to be mocking some American politican who said it...“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
- John 13:34-35 (NRSV)

French
I bet that due to lack of enterpreneurship France has been hit less than UK in the recent recession, has a bigger economy despite of not being an "oil" nation, not to mention all the bordeline communist worker protection laws, national health service which actually works and yes... language that Americans do not speak... Shocking I tell you.
