The key is to piss off the right people.
How do you define the “right people,” though?
Bush definition: The people whose values are inimical to the US’, who oppose democracy, freedom, free enterprise and apple pie, or want to conquer the world and remake it in their own image, which usually entails opposition to the aforementioned list anyway.
Obama definition: The people least likely to commit heinous acts of violence and make your approval ratings drop. Israelis, Britons, and other allies are thus his targets of choice.
