The anti-American propaganda is given energy when past presidents such as Carter and Clinton, former SoS Albright and sitting congressmen such as Bonior, Thompson and McDermott trash the country and its leadership when traveling abroad.

Your comment certainly bears repeating. Whenever I hear one of these damocrats speak out against America, it sounds just like treason to me.

Thanks for the ping-a-ling.

[Shermy]

Thank you. I saw this on FR, and was amazed, maybe not, the contortions the press tried to spin this poll.

Madeline Albright is a moron.

[Darlin']

I just realized I failed to include the Prince of Dorkness, AlGore, in that list.

[Quilla]

The omission is perfectly understandable, Darlin' - Al Gore is such a gnat. Anyone who believes the pesky Prince's pontifications would probably agree with Albright's interpretation of the poll.

The national interests of other countries are narcissistic and most liking based on what they can get from us. From what I have read, most of the people favor the US; it's their government officials and media who negate their attitudes. Mad Halfbright would like nothing better than for us to cowtoe to the tune of lockstep national agendas. It's common sense for anyone to know their enemy as well as their friends but her meaning is more sinister.

Former Clinton administration Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, who chaired the board overseeing the poll, put it this way: "The numbers actually show that we are out of step in terms of our thinking about how people see us versus the way people actually see us."

Maddy you Troll I just have one question for you

Why are you more concern with Saddam life then you are American lives??

As for these favorable poll numbers ..

I have one question to these American News Papers

We are you so bent on causing trouble between American and Europe ??

[Jaidyn]

They will never see us the way we are because of their government and media. Most of them don't understand freedom, anyway, so it would be useless trying to explain a republic. Many of the militant Muslims did have a taste of American life and enjoyed their time here before their final departures. Being in America for the limited time is closer to heaven than their seventy-two virgins. Their behavior and attitude towards us is jealousy combined with the brainwashing of their cultish religion. They were taught their own miserable lives wrought with suffering is preferable to anything other than Islam.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Excellent post. They never sleep do they? They never stop, the Anti-Americans like Madeline Allbright and her Communist friends in the Democratic Party? They will never be satisfied. They are like an open grave seeking many dead bodies ad infinitum. Thanks be to God for sources of TRUTH to counter their LIES.

Albright as SoS was a laughingstock. If she ever achieved one single positive thing for our country, I missed the announcement of it. Now she continues her silliness but who is listening? I suppose she will be the next in line for the Nobel Peace Prize (/sarcasm).

[Jaidyn]

? I suppose she will be the next in line for the Nobel Peace Prize (/sarcasm).
That will never happen. Her looks are enough to start a war. I was embarrassed for her at times until I realize people actually took her serious.
