Ah, go ahead...I think people here are used to it.
You have to see that the European media presents (and has presented) Bush as a mad cowboy, determined to rule the world and to oppress all countries that do not follow Washingtons orders. They show us Bush like as if he´d be egoistic and selfish, reckless against anybody.
Change Bush to Reagan and you would be describing the Soviet media 20 years ago. Scary thought, isn't it?
No, it´s one of my principles. It is not my business to teach you lessons on US domestic policy.

But then, the people knew is what biased propaganda of the enemy. Today, people believe it. Communication would help! I hope that the first destination of our next president (to be elected next year by a majority of Conservative and Liberal delegates) will be the United States. And when Hesse Governor Koch met Bush, he reported that he met a polite, calm and thoughtful statesman. We need more of these "reports", rather than comments of leftist 68-journalists.
Not just the Soviet media, most of the European media hated Reagan and said the exact same crap. Even today most of them would rather die than give him any credit for the Cold War.
