Europeans might have reason to feel disappointed with Barack Obama.
The American president arrives this week in Europe to pick up his Nobel Peace prize just as he has nearly doubled the U.S. troop presence in Afghanistan. This fall, Obama found plenty of time to tour Asia, while missing the 20th anniversary celebrations of the fall of the Berlin Wall.
And Obama originally planned to spend just hours at the Copenhagen conference on global warming, which for many Europeans is the world's No. 1 problem.
Nevertheless, Obama-mania lives on in the hearts of millions here.
A poll released Friday and conducted in the five major European powers _ France, Germany, Italy, Great Britain, Spain _ and the United States, showed that Obama has retained the support of the vast majority of the Europeans polled, even as his rating sagged in the U.S.
The president's continued high standing in Europe may be due in part to the deep-rooted hostility Europeans have harbored for his predecessor, George W. Bush.

Europeans I am told think 0bama is a moslem and real judgment on the US.
How can they be so dumb?
They hate Bush because all of the Liberal press (95%) hated Bush...drones taught in Socialist schools to place their heads in the guillotine and say “thank you.”
Ummm... They didn't elect Obama. Whoever did that... How can they be so dumb?
Many Europeans like Obama, this is true. Many Europeans think Global Warming is a big problem, this is also true. But this is also true in America. You have to also realise that a large amount of Europeans do not like Obama all that much and a lot do not think global warming is a big deal.
You can believe what you want to believe. You will either way. But it doesn't bother me to see a few Europeans fawning all over a black president. What absolutely SICKENS and disgusts me is the way so called patriotic Americans elected this socialist piece of dung. Let the Euros have their little soiree and let them give away their medals. But let's be honest. We are the idiots.
Does anyone doubt that the millions upon millions of people being killed in WWI & II did not somehow adversely affect the DNA of Europe? What a bunch of dopes!
Again. Only dopes would elect Obama.
The fact that he is in office pretty much says it all.
You won’t get around that one.
Yeah, global warming is burning their cities, murdering their politicians, and beheading their citizens in record numbers.
Time for another viral cull of Europe. They've become too weak and stupid to survive the obvious threats facing them, and are now afraid of the dark.
That settles it then. 0bozo will win the 2012 elections in a landslide.
Oh wait, the Al Quaeda loving Euro-trash can't vote in US elections
He likes them better’n us anyway
