It makes me proud and reminds me how destructive the constant America bashing is to our country.
Damn the anti-war critics, Bush is standing strong and in his words he's, "..asking for your vote."
He's earned it.
It didn't do much for Spain.
This is true..I spend a few months a year in Holland . The Euro's are unreal in their vision of whats going on .%100 of the folks I talk to there believe Bush staged 9/11 to make money off a war ..Most believe the US is THE evil empire of all time.Bush is seen as Hiter times 10 .I spent 3 days in Belgium and it's basically a moslem country these days.Little do they realize that THEY are next on the list.Osama did say he will populate Europe..Sad
We'll never be broken by terrorists.
Envy really is a debilitating vice the rest of the world shares.
In essence the U.S. is again having to clean up Europe's mess. Bush isn't waiting for the situation to get even worse.
Since they won't lift a finger to help themselves, it would be nice if these loud mouth ingrates would at least shut up.
Nah, make the Australian states and territorities into our 51st through 57th states. Then make almost all of Canada states number 58 through 71. Quebec can go it's own way, maybe reallign with France? Nah, even they aren't that stupid.
Bump!
Putin may wish to be Czar of all the Russias, but the Bolshevik Interregnum has poisoned that cup for the forseeable future. The other 15 republics of the USSR would not accept re-sovietizing. All imo.
Luckily for Russia, it occupies a territory difficult to conquer - they can play a waiting game for a generation, and see where the geopolitical cards lie then.
If America gives up the fight against terrorism, how long before the rest of the world caves? Britain might hold out a little longer, Australia, too, but without the technical weaponry/firepower/manpower and the US bully pulpit, Europe as a whole would be long gone, then Phillipines, Indonesia, etc.. Who'd be left standing? North Korea and China? South America? NZ? Not to worry, since this won't ever happen.
"As someone pointed out in another thread, only the Aussies have stood with us in every conflict since WWII."
I think the ROK Marines have been with us also, a fearsome bunch of fighters, VC and NVN were scared poopless of the ROK Marines. Prisoner, don't know how to spell that.
Agree..When the Big Bear Russia was in their back yard , the Euro's loved us..Now that they are safe ( for the moment) they all have bIG MOUTHS..Wait and see what happens next ..PS the news over there is TOTAL leftist propaganda..In all fairness to the Dutch . many there havent forgotten how we saved them in WWII but those folks are the older ones who REMEMBER..
The oppressors, the evil ones.
It didn't do much for Spain. I don't know if there's any of 'old Europe' that would stand against an aggressive threat (not considering Britain as part of Europe, btw). They seem to be more geared toward appeasement, hopeful that a threat will simply go away and leave them to their socialism.
And they see, even more clearly than before, the kind of people we are now fighting in Iraq. When police recruits are blown up and helpless hostages beheaded, Americans understand that the right response is not to blame their President but to take the war to the evil cowards who did it.
It is nice to know that there is someone outside the US who can actually see the truth.
Kerry agrees with Old Europe.
