In April 2004, someone called attention to the fact something was a little odd about the care instruction tags found on backpacks and laptop cases produced by manufacturer TOM BIHN of Port Angeles, Washington. Specifically, what was unusual was that the English and French statements on those tags didn't quite match — while both versions included the usual admonitions not to use bleach, not to machine dry, and not to iron the bags, the French-language version included an extra phrase: "NOUS SOMMES DESOLES QUE NOTRE PRESIDENT SOIT UN IDIOT. NOUS N'AVONS PAS VOTE POUR LUI." Roughly translated, this statement reads in English as: "We're sorry our president is an idiot. We didn't vote for him."

Note to self: don't buy Tom Bihn's crap

Yeah, but you'd gladly buy your next Gap tee-shirt from China, where it was made at the expense (and loss) of American labor....

But wait, why would you do that? Hu thinks Bush is his tool?

I just think anyone who thinks they should apologize to the French is an idiot. They purposefully get in our way whenever they can, and demand that we apologize while they hinder us.

[DaveE]

I think it's too bad they didn't try a little harder to stand in our way when we blundered ourselves into Iraq. Then we castigate them (freedom fries and all, for God's sake!) for not joining us.

They were too busy profiteering by dealing illegally with Saddam during Oil-for-Food.

bryant, you are way too young to so passionately emulate the fat, old, scared and borderline retarded white guys you hear on AM radio.

Tool.

If this is how you feel about Rush, Hugh Hewitt, or Michael Medved, indeed you are a tool...Even the lower life form am jockies smoke the left competition in cognition...That you cannot grasp this only speaks to your intellectual capacity.

From www.urbandictionary.com:

someone who is a complete idiot/ one who is used by other people, and usually dosen't even realize it/ someone who can't think for themselves/ an asshat.

Let the French be. They'll all soon all be burqa clad or misogynist women haters - just give them another 5 years. They are afraid of their immigrants and their own shadows - and not in that order.

And what's never said about Europe - they all know that Arab rockets are already within striking distance. They wont fight now, and they certainly wont fight when nukes are on the tips of those missiles. If you've never been to Paris - visit soon...

And it is the toolishness of spoiled and scared children.

As for "compassionate conservatives," they may be too compassionate. Unlike the French, they still believe France is worth saving.

My interpretation of tool has always been similar in meaning to "Hard on", "Prikc", "Dikc".....you probably got the idea. Oh, you'll need to switch the k and c.

I remember seeing this on the TV news back in 2001 or 2002. The company sells a lot of product into Canada, and the french was for Quebec, and not France. The free advertising they got through the news stories increased their sales to the point they had trouble keeping up with orders.
