There Are Some Good Frenchmen

Yes, I actually did say that on a conservative blog. Perhaps it has something to do with French heritage (only a fraction of my ancestry mind you) crying out for justice. The French people are finally putting up a fight (read a little about it at The American Thinker) against this monstrosity that is the European Constitution. Etienne Chouard, the simple blogger who has almost singlehandedly rallied a nation against something that would have subordinated their country and the rest of Europe into an irrevocable centralized government for the rest of recorded history, is an excellent reminder that there is still some rationality on the Continent. Let's hope against hope that the French people rise up and smite this referendum on the constitution back to kingdom come. At the least, we now know that the European Constitution is no foregone conclusion.

I'm glad my French Hugeonot ancestors got run out of France by the Catholics because they landed in Virgnia, too. I'm not confident that the French will turn away from socialism and secularism any time soon. More bad things have to happen for them to change.
