[LookingUp]

If you believe the "mainstream" European press, you now think that the European Union is suffering through one of its worst moments because the current president is Silvio Berlusconi, the Italian prime minister. The EU's presumed misery reportedly rests on the "fact" that Berlusconi is inordinately corrupt, and for extras owns magazines and television stations, thereby putting him in a unique conflict of interest.In fact, they hate Berlusconi not because he's corrupt (can you imagine Jacques Chirac being upset over corruption?) — for which there is no convincing evidence — but because he has shown them up, time after time.

The English language European press consists of Europe-CNN, which is much futher left than US-CNN, the BBC all news network, which is blatently leftist and the International Herald Tribune which is now 100% owned by the New York Times and printed a full America hating editorial on the 4th of July by that grumpy liberal Frank Rich. It's very sad to see that the biggest critics of the USA in Europe our our own fifth column. No wonder people don't like us. If you were only exposed to the lies, distortions and unfocused anger of the leftist view of the USA, and they appeared both native and athoritative you might hate the USA too.
