Have you even looked at any polls of the states around us?

For god's sake! 65% of Mexicans want Kerry and only about 25% want us to elect Bush!!! Similar numbers for Canada and all other democratic countries world over. Get your head out of the xenophobe bucket! The only leader of any importance who specifically supports Bush is Putin. I don't see an endorsement from Blair.

We didn't suck after 9/11 and in many of the place you think they thought we suck it's just your xenophobia getting the better of you. Don't bother quoting some nasty French guy I can find just as many nasty Americans including you to quote being rude to other countries.

My point is not that Bush hasn't friends (Putin) it's he is not using them to make us safer! He is incompetent and needs to be removed from office.
