How does this square with the most recent French, German, and Italian elections? Or Brit for that matter. Each of the newly elected leaders in those countries is far friendlier to the US than their predecessors or opponents.

The US/Bush have been bashed more there than here, hard as that may be to imagine. And, I suspect the polling sample (per the Guardian) is more left leaning than the general populations of those countries (which are pretty left by US standards). It seems the US is the country they love to hate, but want to have their useless backs.
