I don't think they'll be able to come up with an agreement. It would be interesting (but most likely farfetched) if the EU would agree to assist the US in invading Iran but, again, is most unlikely since they're making money off of Iran.

Our common interest in fighting the global Islamic terror is more important than who was right or wrong on the invasion of Iraq. Europe/Russia, and the US knows that. We should work together to finish with this Iraq hellhole. They will never love us regardless how many billions we are going to spend on their sorry ass country.

Bush, Putin, and NATO must redouble their intelligence gathering and cooperation to capture OBL, and stop the madrasas from graduating a new crop of hate-filled Islamists.

What I love is that the dems have been saying for days now that this is a "fence mending" trip for the President .. to give the impression the President has done something wrong and needs to grovel to Europe.

In truth .. it's a "Get in - get out - or get out of the way" trip .. and even Europe knows it!!

Later, Mr Bush would entertain aides with impressions of European leaders speaking very, very slowly so that the ignorant Texan could keep up.

I love this man. LOL

Four years on, European Union leaders have been falling over each other to secure time in front of Mr Bush.

LOL!! Now, let's see, who is making up with whom? Yeah, the threat facing us requires dealing with these people to the extent they are capable of grasping the danger, but I'll enjoy the small moments of groveling we are blessed with along the way. Still wouldn't turn my back on them.

“I think there is a recognition that this President has got his mandate and speaks for a lot of Americans,” said John Bruton, the EU Ambassador in Washington and former Irish Prime Minister.

Sherlock gets it. ;-) Ted Kennedy and N.Y.C. do not speak for me. This President does.

Condoleezza Rice, the new US Secretary of State, played matchmaker during her ten-state, eight-day foreign trip this month. She managed this with warm words, a chic wardrobe and plentiful smiles, though she gave no real ground on any of the issues dividing the US and its European allies.

I'm both amused and disgusted. Superficial elites. Charmed by her grace, face and artistic arts and pedigree. She's not stating a different position than the President's. Infact she and the President have been even more hardline since the election. Does it matter? No. They see what they want to see and hear what they want to hear. It just proves they are worthless. Ideas are what manner, not the package. But for them to appreciate they need the acceptable package. A majority of Americans get this concept. Substance over Style. Europe saving certain alies like Poland, choose Style over Substance.
