Where's the gravy and cheese?
The United States has no collective memory. We as a nation forget things. We're not good with history. We don't know which ethnic groups outside of our boarders have hated each other for generations. Generally, this is not a good thing, but nevertheless it does have a good aspect or two. Who was once our bitter enemy can become our friend quite quickly. Would aliens who knew nothing our planet believe that our grandfathers fought bitterly against the Germans or the Japanese? It is in this spirit that somehow, no one knows for sure exactly how, but within the last week, "freedom fries" and "freedom toast" in the House of Respresentatives are now French again. No word on whether the freedom kiss, the 14-freedom needle, or Third Rock from the Sun actor Freedom Stewart have reverted to their former names.
