i have never denied the role the french played in our independence. i also will have to agree with the point that we more than likly would not have won the war if not for the french. also lets not forget that gen. lafeyette taught our troops drill and ceromony, wich is still used today in the military.

im just tying to get people to see that today is the day we won our freedom. and to also read the documents , because if you read the declaration of independce you will see that the things we origanally fought against are alive and well right here in our homeland.

these facts and the fact i am french and irish decent it burns my ass the way americans treat the french now.
