There are still countries that 'get it.'The non-EU minds of Britain.
Most of Australia.
Poland.
Perhaps, as they are hit by terrorism themselves, certain others may begin to more completely 'get it.'
India.
Russia.
Good one, CW! Nothing like a little sarcasm and ridicule to put things into perspective!
(Glad to see you're still posting; it's been a while since we've chatted.)
Grant this guy American citizenship now! He passes the sanity test!
That presumes that the USSR(remember them?) would not have moved aggressively to exploit American weakness.
That is a typically naive liberal delusion.
The world is against Bush because Bush is forcing the world to own up to the problems facing it.
Europe has never had any guts for anything but developing perverted forms of goverment such as communism, nazism, facisim. I mean if European rulers can't get rich or powerful off of it then they are not interested.

Beheadings are ghastly acts but real Americans arent frightened by them ,they are more determined to dispose of those commiting the act.
America is not like Spain , If we get a train blown up here we want to take the fight to those who blew it up.Not make a deal with them.
A terrorist incident in this country before the election wil not help the fawning,Kiss butt Kerry. We all hope it doesnt come ,but if it does we will choose a man that will and has taken the fight to the terrorists George Bush.
What a great article! We all need to acquire Foster's Lager by the case, buy Ugg boots by the truckload, and patronize any movies or TV shows which feature Nicole Kidman, Mel Gibson, Russell Crowe, Sam Neill, Bryan Brown, Paul Hogan, and any other Aussie actors we can think of.
As someone pointed out in another thread, only the Aussies have stood with us in every conflict since WWII.
Great find! Clear thinkers are scarce, especially abroad.Love the way he uses that pesky logic to refute the arrogant and effete Euros and their adherents.

Heh, heh. I wonder if Baker has a reputation as the Mark Steyn of the Southern Hemisphere.
Envy really is a debilitating vice the rest of the world shares.
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.
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.
"No wonder the rest of the world wants this man as US president. There would be a vacancy for global leadership if he were to win."
EXACTLY, the rest of the world wants a weakend USA. Sure they will cry when 9/11 happens again, but they take to the streets in protest when we attpempt to stop the next 9/11.
