Is France the U.S.'s Strongest Ally?

During President Nicolas Sarkozy's visit to the White House yesterday, President Obama said, "We don’t have a stronger friend and a stronger ally than Nicolas Sarkozy and the French people."  At least one British reporter was outraged at the statement, but another defended it.

What do the Frenchmen/women and Americans out there think about his statement?

Sigh. Poor old Canada, never appreciated. Largest trading partner, most international visitors, longest undefended border in the world, we share national sporting leagues. And yet, not even a mention...
