| I liked the way Gingrich claims that speaking French is somehow elitist, when his own thesis was (apparently) written on education in the Belgian Congo, with references to things written in French.
So, either he didn't actually know what those references were to – or he's an hypocritical twerp.
Still, it'll doubtless appeal to imbeciles who fear education and other countries where they speak a different language.
Not that we have anyone in the UK (or on these boards, even) who celebrate being thick.

Smart move. The French are considered anti-American (which they are). They have a history of fascist sympathising and latterly socialism. The are burying their heads in the sand over their precious, failed Euro project and dragging the world into economic recession / depression. All in all, they represent the ultimate insult to a free American. French speaking suggests to the public Francophilia. The French nation represents all that is bad in humanity - vanity, self-obsession, self-delusion, rudeness and ultimately sychophantic cowardice.

Perhaps it's time to re-locate all of the Arcadians then? After all, simply casting Louisiana adrift would probably save $bns come the next hurricane

"The French invented sex during the day, lingerie and the tongue. Can't we admit we can learn something from them?"

| Apparently he's not fluent; he's been filmed saying "Je m'appelle Mitt Romney", which is enough to prove to Newt and his fellow academicals that he's a dangerous man. Previously he was only accused of "looking French".
We nearly moved to the USA recently; I am pretty glad we did not.

I think you'll find it was John Kerry who was accused of looking French
