FRANCES SECRET REASONS
(A PRECISION GUIDED HUMOR ASSIGNMENT)
Why wouldn't the French help out in Iraq? Lots of reasons:
* The men of France had a list of vital chores to complete
* As did the women
* It's not easy finding a Girl Scout troop to surrender to during the busy cookie-selling season.
* They were having trouble finding just the right jaunty angle to wear their berets.
* Iraq didn't have enough stinky cheese to make the trip worth their while, but they did generously offer to invade Wisconsin.
* They were afraid of getting their asses handed to them by the Iraqi boys soccer team.
* Their tanks only run in reverse, so they couldn't help with the going
in part. But if we need help with the pulling out part...
* Desert camo colors clash with those tacky Where's Waldo shirts they
all wear, and a fashion faux pas of that magnitude is considered a war
crime.
* Haven't yet perfected the bullet-proof beret.
* The nation's ammo supply was already earmarked for cheese hunting season
* They couldn't find an Iraqi phrase for "I am a surrender monkey"
* Too busy laundering the oil-for-food money
* Couldn't get permission from their mommies.
* Troop movement logistics were problematic. Seems the collective stench from 200 French troops inevitably melts aircraft hulls.
* Claimed there was no way to keep their frog supply fed in the "no fly zones"
* Due to a nation-wide pig shortage, the French Army was too busy rooting for truffles.
* Couldn't invade until they figured out which wine goes with falafel.
* The French constitution forbids the slaughtering of native populations outside the African continent.
* Not enough benzene in Iraqi bottled water.
* They're still bitter about Al Franken beating Jerry Lewis in the last round of Iraqi Idol.
Oh, and they're a bunch of spineless, yellow-bellied cowards.
SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS!
