In article Co2Cb.502462$HS4.3878194@attbi_s01, "Jay Honeck"
writes: How, exactly, does one pressure France? Short of standing on their border and shouting at them in German. On the contrary, I believe we have found the PERFECT method of pressuring the French (and other so-called "allies") -- we have quite simply disqualified them from bidding on any reconstruction contracts in Iraq. This has been "Big News" the last couple of days, as if it were somehow revolutionary to exclude disloyal nations from reaping the benefits of our labors. Personally, I call it "justice". Money talks. Expect Bush to let them bid after they forgive all or part of the Iraqi debt. Which should be called the Baathist debt since the Iraqi's never benefited from it, and they should be collecting it from Saddam. But still, when they make the cocession of forgiving that debt, Bush will let them in . Don -- Wm. Donald (Don) Tabor Jr., DDS PP-ASEL Chesapeake, VA - CPK, PVG
