Does France suck?

Well, the majority of French people suck for electing that conservative dwarf. But don't worry, thanks to the dwarf (provided he does 2 terms), Americans will eventually like the Frenchies, since you don't like us now purely because of propaganda reasons related to the fact our past government didn't agree with following you around :D

Well then, lets see... How man wars have the US won?

-The American Revolution

That's all I can seem to name, but then again, I don't know much about US history.


nor do I, at least about world history [size=0]that's why I'm trying to get out of here fast[/size]

both world wars, eh... some more maybe... I'm no history buff I really came here just to bash france :P
I dunno so even if US and france are tied, at least the US didn't win any wars while being led by a teenage girl
Civil War, War of 1812, Spanish-Ameerican War, Korean War, Gulf War, WWI, WWII, and the Revolutionary War have all been won by Americans or with major contributions by America.

I disagree! The War of 1812 was won by Canada and Britain!
The U.S tried to invade Canada, and they drove you out. Please ecplain how you call that "winning".

Because Britain invaded us first! We thought that the Canadians wanted out of the monarhy as well. How does Britian win a war when the entire high command was wiped out in the BAttle for New Orleans?

lol, that battle was ridiculous. I don't remember the exact figures in it... but I know the British lost thousands of troops and we lost like a hundred. Quite the soldiers you guys have :wink: Of course you have James Bond now so that makes up for some of your shortcomings...

no I meant the world wars should be left out in France's case, because they were defeated by Germany (both times right?) I don't think it matters that their team won, they were "eliminated" already. (yeah I know in CC if your team wins you still get the points but this is RL) and even if it counts, still the French didn't do much to win the war, and the US was set back a lot for having to storm Normandy :P

BUT the WW's should count for US cuz they were still active when the Allies won. anyway I didn't mean the WW's don't count I just meant for the french

and yes, americans call the American Revolution the Revolutionary War, it would be kind of redundant for us to call it what you call it

I said in the last hundered years. Ever since they lost Napolean Bonaparte, well, let's just say it went into the crapper from there.

No, merely meant to point out that France wasn't at war until we won a battle. Even after they joined us, they were very reluctant.

You know, The US army isn't as great as you guys make it out to be. Let's look at all the wars you've been in, excluding the civil war and world wars, as it was almost everyone against Germany, Italy, and Japan.

War of 1812-Loss (Anyone who says they won is a bullshitter, you failed your objective, you won nothing from it.)
Mexican-American War-Win
Spanish-American War-Win
Philipine-American War-Controversial Win
Korean War-Ceasefire (Still active)
Vietnam War-Loss
Bay of Pigs-Loss
The Alamo-Loss
Gulf War-Win
Iraq War-Losing

That is 4 wins and 4/5 losses. You guys aren't that great.

1. Brits started war of 1812, we beat them and wiped out their entire high command at the Battle of New Orleans
2. The Alamo was a battle in this war, not a seperate war.
3. We came in to help South Korea, we restored the border and protect them, we won that one.
4. Bay of Pigs was not a war
5. Already said it, by the way, when the Mexican Army attacked and finally over ran it, they had lost about half of their entire army.
6. agreed
7. The war was over long ago, if you look at recent reports, the troops are actually working with some regional leaders and wiping out the terrorists even faster then before. The reason why we are still there is so that the new government can get stronger.
