Honestly, it just doesn't matter. I find it refreshing to have a president who could care less what foreigners think about him. You criticized me for not being objective. I point out that many foreign citizens who have very little direct stake in Bush's actions, and therefore can evaluate him objectively, dislike him and his policies. Then you say you don't care what the objective group thinks. Whatever. I do not want a president who tries to coddle other nations. I want one who looks out for OUR interests, not those of China, Brazil, or whomever. Is a president that is lowering the image of the US throughout the world looking out for your interests?

> How do you explain the Brazilians hatred of George Bush, if not to say that the objective view despises the man? Honestly, it just doesn't matter. I find it refreshing to have a president who could care less what foreigners think about him. I do not want a president who tries to coddle other nations. I want one who looks out for OUR interests, not those of China, Brazil, or whomever. Of course you don't care. Its not costing you anything so why should care. Isn't that the typical neocon attitude......what's in it for me, me, me? However, it is costing other people something and fortunately they do have a say in the matter. Its hilarious......that same indifference to others as well as arrogance is what got jr into the current mess. You guys don't learn from your mistakes, do you? Oh that's right........its not mistake. ;~)
