Anyone want to help get a national movement going to call for a boycott of All french products.
Hit em where it counts!!! I have contacts at 50 of the top radio stations in the nation anyone want to help design a site host it ect ect. Come on lets show these bastards :grrr: |
their wine costs me 50 cents a bottle..i'm not exactly making them rich.
|
Doesnt matter how much you spend
The govt get a % of every cent and use it to help to keep Sadam in power buy buying cheap oil from them and sending them all sorts of military products. |
France is in 7 years economic downturn...
fuck the fuckin' bastards, let's hope you 50 cents wine will be the straw which broke the camel's ass! |
That sounds all well and good, but it will likely have the same effect as trade embargos on countries. The little people suffer while the corrupt governments continue to do what they do anyways.
|
I'll boycott anything EXCEPT the new 2000 Bordeaux's just starting to hit the shelves ... supposedly the best vintage since '61 and '45. I got my hands on a few early releases and needless to say, I'm gonna be buying lots by the case this year.
I'm as patriotic as the next guy, but damnit I won't go without my Bordeaux! :ph34r: :bdance: :bjump: :bdance: :cdance: |
I am all for boycotting French products, I already have started by refusing to drink evian at some reaturants I went to this weekend... I suffered and drank tap water! HAHA
I am actually serious about boycotting french things, fuck them!! |

I'm not sure of the year, but a ways back, France lost most of their Vineyards, can't remember if teh cause was drought or disease or some other form of pestilence... But,
At that time, virtually all of France's vineyards were replanted with cuttings from California Vineyards (makes sense since most of California Vineyards were started with French Cuttings).. So, when you drink French Wine, you are actually drinking the same grape as California.... Save yourself the import fees and be Patriotic at the same time... Drink California Wine !!!! If you want to help out one of our staunchest Allies... Drink Australian Wine !!!! Boycott the French Wines !!!! Dump them down the drain.... Besides if you go experiment a bit, you will find some really really excellent California Wines on the shelfs at $7.00 a bottle....... Love that Gundlach Bundschu... Sonoma Valley.... Yummmmmmmmmmmm |
I got an idea... let's all boycott IRAQ.
Wait, you all drive big ass SUVs that get about 3 gallons per mile... you couldn't live without the oil. Too bad, so sad. Alex |
Sarattah I am with you! I prefer wines from the NAPA region..... hard to beat Caymus, Silver Oak, Joe Phelps, etc....
I have had some nice Aussie wines as well that CJ pointed me too!! Support the ALIANCE!! FUCK THE FRENCH!! |

Let's not even bring up the simple fact that a 4cyl wimp engine wouldn't even allow me to leave my home at all on rainy days like today, lol! Sometimes those real life examples jump up to bite you in the butt B) |
Can't think of one damned thing I buy that comes from France anyhow!!!

Peaches, for every one person that has a real reason to have an SUV, there is some poser out there driving to work each day alone... eating up fuel and all - the continued increase in demand for fossil fuels in the US (131 billions gallons last year, if numbers I have read are correct) - is something that continues to put the western world at the feet of these tin pot dictators...
Here... an idea from someone I respect greatly (who shoots guns even... ) http://www.automobilemag.com/columns/0303_...americandriver/ You won't like it.. but it is about a million times more productive than not drinking french wine. Alex |
Alex every Vehicle I drive has a v8 in it....
I enjoythe power and the speed. My SUVs burn less gas them my classics.... However, the problem with Oil is not Iraq.... it is the liberal in the US who will not let us drill for oil in our own back yards! We have enough oil in the US to last this nations needs for the next 100 years... we just need to drill it! Alex, the issue with Iraq is not oil - at least this time - it is about a dictator having WMD - refusing to give them up, and not living up the the cease fire. |

I agree... maybe we should start getting off the oil before we concern ourselves with the French.

Check your stock and mutual funds portfolio for French stocks (Vivendi...) and write your mutual fund company.
I remember this strategy was very successful with fighting apartheid when activists got all the endowment funds of universities to divest themselves of any South African investments. |

hmmm.. sounds like the REST of the western world doesn't have much to offer, do they..... How WE (the U.S.) is RESPONSIBLE for the ENTIRE western world is beyond me..... I thought most of the many nations that make up the WESTERN WORLD were fairly autonomous and did their own thing.... The U.S. dependence on Oil is the U.S.'s problem, thank you very much..... We have a history of taking care of our own problems, sometimes the right way, sometimes the wrong way..... But, unlike OTHER members of the Western World that exist in this hemisphere, we don't rely on someone else to fight our battles for us...... I remember when I was stationed in Bermuda. We would get ships from all over the world in there... Most countries ships were so pretty and shiny.... Canadians would come in with all their brass shined up, looking all spiffy and new..... The same for the Norwegians and tyeh Swedish..... The U.S. ships were rusty, breaking apart... dirty hulks..... Got talking about it with some folk and asked "how come our ships look like shit while the rest of em that come in here are so pretty?", The answer given to me was "Well, we actually use our ships, we don't bring them into dry dock just because it's raining" |

Great idea and website! Thanks for the listing of their brands. I'll share it with my friends.
:bulb1: Not sure if you've heard this one but recently it was said that going to war without the French is like going to war without an accordian. :P |

One of our problems is that we are addicted to oil. (that is not causing the current conflict, but it is an issue) Alcohol is a cleaner fuel and has been available much longer than oil.... It also can be produced by just about anything. We stopped putting our development money into Alcohol along about the turn of the century... Not because it wasn't viable, but predominantly because of the Temperance movement. The big oil companie have the bucks to command policy and as far as they are concerned, there is no need to put money into Alcohol or other Alternatives until we have pumped every bit of oil we can out of the ground..... We do not need more oil wells, we do not need more Oil imports... We need more money going into developing the Fuel Alcohol industry in our country... Take us totally off of any foreign dependence..... |

Alex I think your logic is seriously flawed regarding connecting SUV owners & Iraq. But here's one for you:
Back up all your constant complaints about the USA by refusing all current and future checks from US based sponsors. If you don't do that, then wouldn't your SUV arguments be hypocritical? |
