Europe "Wary" Of Bush Second Term

Frankly, I don't give a damn what Europe thinks. It is a cauldron of socialist pacifism, doomed to collapse under the weight of an aging population and encroachment by the enemies in their midst that they don't even recognize. However, this AP story (run as news, not opinion) is ridiculous.

They wonder: Will he now set his sights on Iran? Will he widen the rift with Europe? Or will he become more conciliatory, seeking to secure a legacy the world ultimately will respect?

Let's see. Well, I would say that Iran might well be next. Widening the rift with Europe? If the EU opposes the administration's policies, then, yes, I would say the rift will widen.

But the best part is about being conciliatory and earning respect. Since when does that earn you respect? Down here in Texas the way you earn respect is by saying what you are going to do and doing it. And from what I've seen of President Bush, he has earned a lot of respect. So if y'all think that what the man is saying is somehow evil, I'd forget being wary. I'd be scared.
