C'est Ironique, N'est-ce Pas?

Par Mademoiselle Kubelik

Here's a trip down Memory Lane for you kittens out there: In America's dark past (okay, 15 years ago), we had a terrible President who invaded a country that hadn't attacked us. Like many nations around the world, France did not support this. Republicans went chauve-souris-merde.

Things got so dicey that our favorite French restaurant felt compelled to hang a huge American flag in its front window. Thankfully, the national madness faded — generally, around the time that everybody figured out the Iraq war was an embarrassing blunder and that France was right.

Why the fond reminiscing? Because the current occupant of the Oval Office — who makes that awful Iraq invader look good — has decided that the French are onto something when it comes to military parades. Emmanuel Macron had one, so now he wants one.

We advise "Wee Donald" to tread cautiously. Military parades are really more the hallmark of dictatorships, not democracies. North Korea, Russia, China and Nazi Germany come to mind.

You know, maybe people would stop comparing Trump to Hitler if he would stop acting like Hitler. We cats HISS.
