Most Europeans consider Powell to be the more reasonable face of U.S. policymaking. Bush and Secreatry of Defense Donald Rumsfeld "have alienated Europeans with their style and language," says the CEO of a large U.S. company's European subsidiary. "Powell is different. He knows how to communicate with us effectively." On Jan. 23, Rumsfeld astonished NATO allies by calling both France and Germany "a problem" and referred to them as "old Europe."

It doesn't matter what people think of europe. We sell a lot of stuff to europe and if we want to continue with that we need to deal with these people. Bush is the president. And he has "alienated Europeans".

Lets look at this differently- is there a foreign concern that Bush hasn't alienated? I can think of one, Tony Blair but he is out on a limb on this and will likely suffer for it.
