Interesting that you’d quote a minister and applied it to a Christian president, and all the while being yourself not a Christian (I presume).

   Please. The dirty little secret is that Europe has always detested America for one reason or another.

Perhaps, but the dirtier little secret is that Europe’s antipathy is not and has not always been groundless.

Dave!


The bigger ‘dirty little secret’ is “Hey! The Euro’s hate us anyway so who cares about their opinion where ‘world events ’ are concered even though the Europeans live closer to Iraq than do Americans... and hey! What about (not that I haven’t mentioned this numerous times before) those Canadians?? They come with us on all our ‘expeditions’ to right wrong! And yet, strangely apathetic and downright disregarding us on this one!”

So John... Please.

It wasn’t just the ‘usual suspects’ that disliked what you did this time. As a matter of fact, your little ‘coalition of the willing’ is exactly that--little in the grande scheme of countries who usually do back you up and yet, somehow, all absent. Your friends are getting to be fewer and fewer.

So again, Please.
