Let Them Eat Cake!

Oh la la! This story has been around for a while, but we at Mike's America have had our hands full fending off the communist surrender monkeys...

The French, and assorted America haters have their berets in a knot over this promotion for a new Subway sandwich:

In response to the criticism, Subway has withdrawn the ad, giving France the only victory that sorry bunch of frogs has ever known.

Indignant frogophiles are still not satisfied, threatening to boycott Subway. I say: Let 'em eat cake! Or better yet, pass the snails!"

Alpha Patriot, the reformed liberal, has more. For the perspective from the snail eating surrender monkey point of view see this.
