No critical mind, calling names (weasel, euros, eurotrash, etc) against anybody not agreeing with them
Well, eurotrash is an old epithet, quite prevalent in the Boston college scene while 'axis of weasels' is new but quite descriptive of France's duplicity towards SOS Powell, reneging on the 19th (?) UN resolution.
...No, that's not the America that was once respected when it used soft power.
Soft as in sacrificing tens of thousands on the beaches of Normandy and beyond? or soft in facing down the nuclear armed Soviet Union for decades until it fell apart in a futile quest to fund an arms race counter to Reagan's derided Star Wars?
