Do you really think Bush would have settled the score with Iraq if it hadn't been for 11 sep ??
I'm pretty sure that Clinton to, would have gone after Saddam, if "11 sep" had happend during his time in the White House.
US forreigh politics changed a lot due to the 11 sep, so it really doesn't make a lot of sence to compare hahahahaz ... sorry Bush and Clinton without keeping that in mind´.
By the way ... when Clinton visited Copenhagen 4-5 years ago, about 150.000 (out a population of 1 million) crowded the center of Copenhagen to hear him give a speach ... protesters where limited to about 100 leftwing radicals.
If Bush was to visit Copenhagen, I think the numbers would be reversed
Why .....
- Well it's not because of the Iraq thing ... I and lot's of other Danes support this initiative.
- It's not because the man would fail a geografi exam in elementary school.
- It's not because of the shitty american economy has devaluated the value of my US-checks by 25% during the last year
It might be because ...
- Bush used to be a CO in the oil-industry !
- Bush's tax-releaves are reserved for the 5% riches.
- The ONLY thing keeping Bush in office is "the war on terror".
- He seems to have an IQ that doesn't exceed 50. It kind of worries me, that the most poverfull position in the world is held by an ignorant muron .... (on the other hand ... a bunch of very wealhty and powerfull men put him in office ... You just gotta "cross your fingers" and hope that there IQ exceeds his).
Basicly it boils down to credibility´and appearance.
Us is the only Superpower in the world, and I'm glad to have them has as "some kind of global policeman".
With the apove in mind, I don't understand how you can elect a guy that represent your great country so badly internationally !
This is not a matter of beeing right- or leftwing, pro-pease or pro-war, but a matter of lack of intelligence and charme.
(I for one would be imbarrassed if our Prime-minister gave that impression to the rest of the world).
This is not US baching ... We're greatfull for all you've done for Europe in WW1 and WW2.
I support US 100% in Iraq, (and for that matter North Korea if it comes to that). Denmark has already deployed special-forces and coatline-subs to the support the US-forces in the Golf ... and this is the least we could do in my oppinion.
...Now let's get rid of Saddam.
