Nothing could be further from the truth, my fellow countrymen and I delight in the cinematic nuances of your great Jerry Lewis and the culinary wonders of your beautiful Croissandwich. Still, there seems to be perception that we are nothing more than, how you say, "cheese-eating surrender monkeys." We in France take strong objection to this remark. And, in future, we wish to be referred to as "battle-challenged simian feasters on fromage." Nevertheless, our great alliance has always remained strong, despite our having to listen Madeleine Albright speak French for four years. So I want to assure you that the French stand firmly behind the United States, and therefore we have decided to firmly not support you nor lend you any assistance in your coming confrontation with Iraq.
