prophetic words. I want Bush to take the gloves off and start slapping some dems around along with the evil in Iraq. Could Iran be next? Just start checking off the laundry list.

Well I think this says it all:

Khaled Maeena, editor of Saudi newspaper Arab News, said: "Four more years means (Bush) will be relentless in fighting so-called terrorism. More innocent people will be victims ... All the Saudis I've seen so far are disappointed."

Sami Abu Zuhri, of the Palestinian group Hamas which is fighting Israel, said: "We urge the new American administration to reconsider its positions ... Until they (do so) we will continue to regard the U.S. administration as hostile to our Arab and Muslim causes."

But Iyad Allawi, prime minister of the U.S.-backed Iraqi government, told Italian daily La Repubblica both Bush and Kerry were regarded as friends. "The United States liberated us from a dictator (Saddam Hussein (news - web sites)) from a very long period of war and agony."

The coverage from the world media will shift slightly now as there is nothing they can do to get Bush out of office.

MoveOn and other such front groups have lost a lot of their influence.

Movie theaters will go back to showing movies and not political propaganda. But we won't forget.

That can't be so!!

I heard a campaign commercial (moveon.org?) that said Bush was in bed with the Saudis.

But Norwegian Prime Minister Kjell Magne Bondevik spoke for several countries when he said: "I hope that (Bush) will try to build bridges ... and do more to cooperate via international organizations."

Uh, no Mr. Bondevik, it's up to YOU to build the bridges, you are the ones who burned them down.

Why do representatives of tiny, piss-ant, leftist European countries always insist that the president "must do more to heal the rifts in the trans-Atlantic relationship"?

Their solutions are always that the president must come over to their position on issues. Maybe these guys need to practice what they preach.

That's what I was going to say..
However it bears repeating. The Senate vote to ratify the Kyoto treaty was 96-2 (2NV) A waste of time and a dead issue in Congress... Move on.

4 year forecast.

1. Tomorrow Fallujah turns to dust and if Sadr acts up again he will die.
2. By 2006 we pull almost everything out of Germany and place more in Poland and elsewhere.
3. Osama is dead or hopping around shackled in an orange suit at Gitmo.
4. Many many many Arabs who are involved with terror will die. Others will begin to see a future.
5. The economy grows steady.
6. Iraq becomes a democracy.
7. Afgahnistan becomes a democracy.
8. Our education system continus to be reformed.
9. Social security is turned into a long term viable system.
10. Our ties with our "real" allies (Those who supported us when we were attacked as we sood by them in the past) will grow stronger.

The Eurotrash continues to sob in self pitty as their socialist economies just lug around (France and Germany). They continue to only hope that we fail so that they can feel some sense of gratification/justification in their positions in economics and security.

Bush said in 2000 that he'll reform our education system. It's happening. Tax cut, came just as promised. Iraq was to meet UN mandates or face the conequences. They didn't conform, we fixed their problem for them. Bush will deliver!

Thanks!

Geeze these Euroweenies sound so much like the Dems with their carping that Bush must bend over backward to them. Hey, all of you, you lost, he won, get over it!

It's time for all of them to understand that Americans in a post 9/11 world have retained a leader of great demonstrable strength who will fight for American interest first, last and always.

God Bless President Bush and the USA!

In France, which was a leading critic of the war, Foreign Minister Michel Barnier called the election the start of "a new stage" irrespective of who won.

"We are going to work with the new U.S. administration," he said. "We have many things to do, both on the current crises -- in Iraq, the Middle East, Iran, the fate of the African continent -- and to renovate the transatlantic relationship."

German Interior Minister Otto Schily said: "Despite the issue of our differing positions in the past, we all have to contribute to ensuring that the situation in Iraq stabilizes."

Hmmm... Very interesting. Could this display of power (Bush & the Republicans' clear mandate) be speaking louder to the French & Germans than Kerry's obeisance to the moral superiority of the EU & UN?

My favorite response was Koisumi of Japan comparing the reelection battle and presidency of President Bush to High Noon with Gary Cooper.

Okay, y'all, taking your pool bets now on how long before President Assad of Syria coughs up Saddam's WMD!

I'm betting by Christmas.
