Biden to Europe: 'get over' Bush election

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18 (UPI) -- Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., urged Europe to "get over" the fact President Bush was re-elected and work with the United States on common problems.

"I spent a little time in Europe recently, and I have one simple message: Get over it. Get over it. President Bush is our president for the next four years, so get over it and start to act in your interest, Europe," Biden said during the Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing to confirm U.S. Secretary of State nominee Condoleezza Rice. "But that requires us to engage in the hoped-for diplomacy from the gentle lady from Stanford."

Rice was provost of Stanford University in Palo Alto, Calif., before Bush tapped her to become national security adviser in 2000.

Rice has vowed to work with Europe and other U.S. allies on issues, including Iraq.

Trans-Atlantic relations were hurt following the U.S.-led decision to invade Iraq.
