This puts a whole new meaning to eating a croissant.
I love croissants. Guess I'll have to treat myself to one again soon. Hope we can defeat terrorists instead of kowtowing to them all the time.... And I'm not talking about the"imagined terrorists" that the msm keep insisting are out there from the Tea Party, but beginner killers like Dhokar and Tamarlan, even if they are seemingly more normal than Romney because they smoke weed with their friends. I find that just sickening. People are American because they smoke weed with their friends. It's even a great qualification for President, who also had real terrorist friends named Bill Ayres and Bernadette Dorn....
