** We read about how HAMBURGers were renamed "Freedom Burgers" so as to distance what we were eating from Hamburg, Germany.
There were other changes as well.
Funny how when we learned about Republicans and Democrats in school the republicans were defined as those people who support "things that have worked in the past" while democrats like to try "new things".
Well, in the past we renamed foods, harassed people (McCarthyism), sent Japanese to internment camps...
Looks like we've got 2 down out of 3. Maybe they will open up a camp in Dearborn, MI where the largest concentration of "A-rabs" is in the country. We shall see.

: Seems our patriotic ansd moronic Congress has decided that henceforth only Freedom Fries and Freedom Toast will be allowed in their cafeteria...following the lead, when do they lead?, of several retaurants in the DC area. I like that...now they won´t be French kissing their interns, they´ll be Freedom Kissing them!
: Let´s give them back the Statue of Liberty too...and no more French Laundries etc.
: Boy...democracy sure is a great thing!
