Actually, he writes an article called "Statistics can mislead as easily as they can enlighten" published in CSM. It points out a useful distinction akin to the fallacy of division, hearkening back to one of my favorite books of all time, "How to Lie with Statistics."
The French figure prominently in his examples, but the title is misleading. (Extra credit for anyone who can identify the title's fallacy.)

The French are way too easy targets. That's why the title works.
