Re: You saw that reflected in the Old Europe bit. Increasingly, they see Europe as part of the problem, not the solution.

Okay... but which country in Europe is "part of the problem"?? Poland? Italy? The UK? The Netherlands? Portugal? Let's face it: except France --backed by Germany-- nobody in Europe can stand out against the US... lastingly.

Re: Secondly, its no secret that Europe thinks Bush is a dud. They hate that you treat him like he's a bush wacker from TX.

That's right as far as (European) masses are concerned... Enter any bookstore in Europe and you'll find indeed scores of books on Bush, the Bush dynasty, Bush v Chirac, Bush's neocon brains, etc. Yet EU topsiders are well aware that it all goes deeper than that --it's the nexus of US policy (the Pentagon, the Evangelical constituency, the media-military complex,..) as a whole that's responsible for the US's reckless imperialism.... not just the frontman in the White House.
