Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys
In the singular usage it more generally refers to a person holding French citizenship. More specifically, to a Frenchman holding an opinion that is deemed (by the listener) as unsupportive - especially regarding foreign policy or military matters.

It refers to the supposed cultural habits of Frenchmen - cheese eating and surrendering when any slight agressive action is taken towards them or their country. It is considered perjorative in any sense.
