[Paul Atreides]

On the eve of the U.S. election, China criticized the "Bush doctrine" of pre-emptive strikes, said the Iraq war has destroyed the global anti-terror coalition and blamed arrogance for problems dogging the United States around the world.

Ever notice how much America's enemies sound like Kerry?

"On the eve of the U.S. election, China criticized the "Bush doctrine" of pre-emptive strikes, said the Iraq war has destroyed the global anti-terror coalition and blamed arrogance for problems dogging the United States around the world."

Here's an October or November surpise for you China: After being briefed upon your nation's new tone toward the US, President Bush decides against waiting for the results of the election and launches a full force nuclear first strike on China killing over 1.4 billion Chinese in less than 15 minutes. When asked why, President Bush merely said "Why not?'." The President then went on to a huge electoral landslide.

Predictably, world opinion was extremely harsh, but America didn't give a damn.
