WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The cafeteria menus in the three House office buildings changed the name of "french fries" to "freedom fries," in a culinary rebuke of France stemming from anger over the country's refusal to support the U.S. position on Iraq.

Ditto for "french toast," which will be known as "freedom toast."

At this rate, the French will be asking for the big green statue back in no time. Your ally disagrees with you about a war they think is unjust? Rename their foodstuffs! That'll show 'em! Perhaps I should just go and order up a slice of Oppression Pie to go with my Freedom Toast...
