Little Love For Bush At U.N.

[dArKeR]

By David Paul Kuhn,

President Bush has worked well with friends and poorly with allies, it could be said. But this June, from the shores of Normandy to Sea Island, Georgia, Mr. Bush is making concessions in an effort to bring the old friends, of Old Europe, back to the side of U.S. foreign policy.

Publicly, it's working. The U.N. Security Council unanimously passed a resolution supporting the handover of sovereignty to the interim Iraqi government on Tuesday, as world leaders met in Georgia at the G-8 summit of leading industrialized nations.

But in the corridors of the United Nations, people are skeptical, if not downright displeased, with current U.S. efforts to rekindle ties.

1. There is no love for Junior in any foreign country.
2. There would be little to no love for Junior in America if the American Media was not infiltrated by Government Mole Agents, right up to the CEO's.

1. Little Love For Bush at UN

Pres. Bush should consider not being loved at the UN (the Babylon on the East River) a compliment; I know I would.

2. Yeah and he is not loved by anyone in Europe either

or at least not the OLD Europe.

Say, didn't Spain just bail in Iraq too?

When i travel abroad, I tell people I am Canadian.
I hope to be in the throngs that cheer when Bush's statue is pulled down!

3. UN

Bush is not liked by the UN? What's the UN anyway, just most of the nations of the world in a global pact of compromise. Who cares if they don't like him? It's not like we listen to them anyway?

More people felt that Bush was a bigger threat to World Security than Hussein was. Hussein gassed his own people, and the rest of the world felt Bush was a bigger threat. Either a majority of foreigners are screwed up in the head, or we should seriously think what our government is doing come November.

4. After we invaded and screwed things up,

we are coming to the UN and Nato for help.

Whos'e sorry now?

Sometimes the cost of going it alone is more than having others say "I told you so" .

I agree, Bush IS more of a threat to the world than Sadam ever was.

At least we had Sadam contained. I think the current talley is over 830 Americans killed in combat and over 10,000 Iraqis. Given time we may well kill and or torture as many innocent Iraqis as Sadam did.

But hey, its pay back for 9/11, right?

5. Excatly

I mean, Saddam and Bin Laden were so tight, they obviously planned 9/11 together. Payback is a bitch, especially when you have nothing to do with it. In Iraq, after 9/11, no one was dancing in the streets celebrating our downfall expect RG units. While in Syria, Lebannon and Palestine, those civilians were laughing about our casualties. Syria has WMD's, Syria doesn't like us, Syria in fact has stated they have ties to UBL, so obviously, the conclusion is..let's bomb Iraq.

6. Actually I was being facetious. Sorry.

9/11 had nothing to do with Iraq. Even the president admitted it.
I am not trying to play a game of gotcha, yet I was making a ironic reference to a widely believed myth.

Again, there is absolutly no proof that Sadam had anything to do with the terrorist attacks in September 2001.

This invasion should never have happened. It was a war crime.

There was no jusfitication that made it OK to invade - and I fear we will pay heavily for it. I do NOT support this war/invasion/colonization, what ever you want to call it.

But maybe you misred my sarcasm. As Benjamin Franklin once said, there never was a bad peace or a good war.

7. ha

i'm sorry if i came across as...well...not sarcastic. I got what you were saying and I fully agree with you.

[amber dog democrat]

8. Oh

That is the funny thing when all you have to go by is text.
I did not read the nuances.

Well good. You don't have to agree with me, I just did not want to offend.
