IT'S ALWAYS THE FRENCH -- PART 2

'A French official said Saturday that even if Sen. John Kerry defeats President Bush in November's election, his country won't provide troops to help the U.S. in Iraq - the same policy France has under President Bush.

"If Kerry is elected, we wouldn't send troops either," the unnamed official told the New York Daily News. "We don't need any more targets in Iraq." '

The story is at Newsmax.com.

I guess that pours some cold water on Kerry's promise to strengthen our ties with historic allies. It comes as no surprise.
