The world is hating Bu*h
This is in the Yahoo news - Wow.
This is reaction after the UN speech

"Arrogant, aggressive, too unilateralist are just some of the terms used to describe the US administration.

Opinion polls taken around the world confirmed the dim view of the US leader and his policies, which is most notable among traditional allies in Europe and the Arab world.

Anti-Americanism has affected previous administrations during the Vietnam war and the deployment of nuclear missiles in Europe in the 1980s, according to Melvyn Leffler, a professor of American history at the University of Virginia, in an article for Foreign Policy magazine.

"But the breadth and depth of the current anti-Americanism are unprecedented," he said."


We all know this. Perhaps some Yahoo news reading folks can figure it out if they read this. RATE IT!!!!

5. I think this sentiment...the world hating * causes some
Americans to rally behind him. It goes like this...it's OK if WE (AMERICANS) hate our president but when other nations come down on him, I think it causes people to reflexively come to his defense. He may be a fool, many think, but he's OUR fool. I guess what I'm trying to say but not doing a good job of is that people tend to circle the wagons if they feel other countries are picking on *.

8. Not just the World, parst of the solar system do too
I think its a safe bet that the support for Bush is waining on the Moon as well as Mars.
There is reeason to suspect that Bush's space initiatives may have environmentally adverse impacts on these parts of our Solar System.

They would wait until a more responsible administration wants to promote further exploration.

For what its worth, when I travel to some place like Egypt or Turkey, I always say I am a Canadian.
