Arabs are skeptical and Bush is seeking a solution. Well of course they are and he's got a tough job changing that. They are also walking talking integrated citizens of countries around the globe, including this one. Arabs have satellite tv and access to the internet. So they get the lovely bigotry and hatred of Savage types and they get to read the lies told about them and the unjust and hateful bigotry posted by people like you. You think that kind of crap is cute, popular, it raises Savages ratings, so it must be something really special. Sheesh, show mass executions and gladiatorial fights to the death on tv if you want to see the ratings really go up. But they are supposed to forget all that when Bush tells them America wants to be friends. Your inflammatory bashing and bullying approach is not the stuff that invites confidence in a global outreach. But you will ignore that fact and speak over it because it doesn't bolster your ego enough. You wouldn't win any popularity contests being decent tsk tsk. If Bush is seeking a solution to Arab skepticism, he should start by condemning the conduct of people like you. You destroy his credibility. You, and people like you are what terrorists use to justify their hatred of America. I have met radicals and I know how they think ... they use you and people like you as a tool for their extremism, just as you use them to justify your own. It isn't rocket science dude, its a very simple formula ... extremism needs contra-extremists because extremism feeds on extremism. Go get some therapy for your terrorist envy, if you want to find a solution for Bush's cause.
