All I know about it has been said already, so I have no idea if McDonald's has/will change it.

Dont get the wrong idea of us americans dan. They're are a lot of us who do not support this war. Bush's approval ratings have dropped thru the floor compared to where they were at before. A friend of mine from australia was bragging about how several hundred thousands of people had gathered to do an anti-war protest in a nearby city as if nobody over here cares. As a matter of fact it so happened that on the same day sveral hundred thousand more people than that had gathered in New York city to protest the war. I just don't want people to get the wrong idea about americans. It's pretty split down the middle right now. And as for freedom fries...should we also forget that the Statue of Liberty was a gift from France when our country got started? Ughhh...this is ridiculous...like I said...don't get me started...

I'm neither for or against the war. I just have strong oppinions on calling french fries "freedom fries".

mark0™ · Mar 14th, 2003, 11:13 AM

There was a protest a little while back in Glasgow (big city in Scotland) and I happened to be there, man, I have never seen so many Idiots, Losers and A**sholes In one place.

It was a bunch of Stupid ass Goth Teenagers skipping school (technically, so was I, but it was going somewhere approved by the school, not that it matters) and all they could say is Basicallly

"Dont go to war, because killing people is bad!"

You know, stupid stuff with no real meaning behind it. They were also swearing, calling Bush and Blair A-Holes etc. Then, outside the army recruiting centre which is near by, they drew dumbass chalk out-lines with names on them to like simulate the deaths in war or some crap, I really didnt understand.

I'm not for the war, I am against it, but these guys, they had no points to back themselves up with and basically resorted to childish antics (heck they were children).

Just a day in my fantastic life I thought I might add... lol.

And calling them Freedom Fries, ... ugh, even though It'll probably never catch on, but Americans... they can be a little over patriotic. I wish I bought a lot of shares in the "Flag" industry before September 11th, I would be a millionaire by now lol.

Not trying to offend all americans here, but there are some americans like that.

Pffft politics. [Homer] Booooring [/Homer] I don't even watch the news.....I really could care less about "current events"

ssjtrunks13 · Mar 14th, 2003, 02:35 PM

I don't really care about politics or the news either. The only time I've worried about about current events is when I've had to find something for history or english because I had to.

Hero · Mar 14th, 2003, 04:19 PM

It's best not to think about it, because if it happens it's not like we'll notice. Buttons will be pressed and the castles in the sky will collapse, and we can kiss our 'precious' planet good bye.

I feel sorry for the poor fool that comes to America looking for trouble, because most of us are pretty hostile to foreigners as it is... Foreign invaders on the other hand.

Preventer Wind · Mar 14th, 2003, 07:21 PM

Problem is that we are all for foreigners (Except Indians, though they are treated like ones.). Too many associations you know. We got groups for blacks, gays, whites, men, women, children, elders and a bunch more. Why do people have to have groups that exclude people based on something they can't control? Not that every group is like that but a lot are. And when people aren't in that group that group thinks they are against them. This group for war thinks that these groups for no-war are their enemies and that makes no sense at all.

As far as I know it is just the congress cafeteria. If other places change it will be their own choice because congress would be violating the first amendment.

I am for the war. I think that we should state are real reason for going to war. If it truly is for having certain weapons then I am fine with that. But if it is for taking over the country then I would be angry. But these dictators need to be thrown down. Let the people of that nation choose who they want to rule them and how they want to be ruled. If they want a dictator then that is their problem.

Lost_myth · Mar 14th, 2003, 10:57 PM

I think it is tight. I'm part french but screw them!

FREEDOM!!! (Like in "Braveheart.")

MakgSnake · Mar 14th, 2003, 11:45 PM

I dont know why America is acting like a 2 year old. Kids at 1st grade do these kind of things.... "freedom fries".. my god. America has some of the NICEST people ever, but American politicians are just horrible in my opinion. I mean, just to look at this Freedom Fries......

All this is very pathetic...

toast: finally! we got the respect we derserve!
fries: but of course!
dressing: we are finally free! viva la freedom!

i wish my freedom toast could talk

but enough of my antic's.
it is pretty stupid if you ask me. it's just food for godsake's. beside's french toast,french fries and french dressing just sound's better to me.

ssjtrunks13 · Mar 15th, 2003, 02:25 AM

Yeah, I like all those except for French dressing. I could tell you how I think it tastes but I seriously don't think you guys would want to know. Anyway, I think there a lot of people here that would agree with calling french fries freedom fries is stupid.

Lost_myth · Mar 15th, 2003, 11:24 AM

I haven't heard of this stuff before my friend told me and ya'll posted.

I honestly could go wither way. But I don't care for French people all too much, they think of us poorly. The place is sure lovely though.

Redpyramidhead · Mar 16th, 2003, 02:44 AM

Everytime I go and order french fries or french toast from now on I am going to make a point to stress the french in it just to piss these dumbasses off. Heh...I am so bad ass

_RED_ stuff

Berserker · Mar 17th, 2003, 04:48 AM

Bush is as hypocrite as a man can be...going around telling the world they are the defenders of democracy, sounds very honorable but where were they when thousands of people were killed by dictators in serbia, Bosnie, Yoegoslavia(???)... oh wait they are poor countries that haven't got any oil. I strongly oppose to Saddam and his regime, but when I heard Bush wanted to install an american government after Saddam's downfall my stomach turned. In a few years time( 10 or 20 ) there's is gonna be an oil scarse in whole the world...I think Bush is securing his nation of oil for the coming years...

That's right. This whole "Freedom Fries" thing is quite pathetic and really childish. There's really no point in going to these "extremes" of showing the US' "disapproval" of France, just because they're not supporting the US.

True, but then again, there are some really patriotic Americans...and these people will go around trying to get everyone to change the name to "Freedom Fries" especially if they support it all the way (you know those types). Sooner or later, it'll probably happen.
I'm not saying that every American in the US is patriotic, but there are people like that...
It's good to know that there are a lot of Americans not for the war though.
