Another blow for diplomacy

'Freedom Toast' Served on Air Force One


I would hope that our government would have bigger things to concern themselves with, instead of making empty, spiteful gestures. Apparently, I'm hoping for too much.

MACDILL AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. (Reuters) - On President Bush's Air Force One flight to Florida on Wednesday it was au revoir French toast, hello "Freedom toast."

"Stuffed Freedom Toast" topped the breakfast menu, in a subtle slap at the French for helping to confound U.S. attempts to get the U.N. Security Council to authorize military force against Iraq....

White House spokesman Ari Fleischer (news - web sites), asked about the newly titled "Freedom toast," smiled and said, "We're always proud of the men and women of our Air Force."

And I suppose that French fries are taboo as well?? Get over yourselves....
