Yes we started late, but we stayed late too. We finished up in the pacific, with little or no european help. We kept W Berlin open with our airlifts. We pumped billions of dollars into war torn europe. The french provided teh victory wine. They were grateful and fully expressed it then. Its now almost 60 years later. We need to quit holding it over their heads, but this showing up late garbage is silly. The french are free to make what ever choices they want. Thats what it is about, freedom. But I am also free to think that they are putting their financial ambitions above the good of the rest of the world.
