International Reaction to US Election

[OzzyKP]

(hoepfully this will be deemed unique enough to survive the mods, and interesting enough to be used)

There was a feeling before that Bush stole the election in 2000 and while the world hated him, they gave a pass to the American people (mostly), as they felt our leader was illegitimate.

Now that the Americans have chosen, by an even wider margin to elect Bush, thus giving a stamp of approval to all he's done over the last 4 years, how does this affect world opinion of Americans and how does it harm international relations?

Is there no turning back now?

People seem to be whining. Leaders seem to be kissing Bush's ass.

The above refers to Europe, of course. The people and leaders in other parts of the world are much more intelligent and pragmatic.

The Indian reaction thus far, to my knowledge, has not been positive

Who's whining? I'm laughing myself silly...

Given the relationship that developed between the US and Pakistan due to Bush, why would it be?

[OzzyKP]

I heard on NPR that India is fairly positive on Bush, as we've been sending them a lot of American weapons and American jobs.

They're stuck on the reservation making sure the casinos are manned. Like they give a sh1te one way or the other.

Canadians are sadly becoming more foreign as time goes by, and more hostile towards Americans..

Argh!

"So what nationality are you?"
"I'm Russian and part Indian."
"Really? What tribe?"

True dat.

You guys have lost your way and have refused our maps, so good luck to you...

So?

[Drake Tungsten]

It's not even true, anyway. Eastern Canada is still just northern New England. BC is still just northern Washington. And Alberta is still just north Texas...

I love how people think we can just tell the rest of the world to f off like it somehow doesn't matter.

That's living off of borrowed time.

[KrazyHorse]

Stop talking reason, Ted.

Your President is really going to make things a lot easier for the rest of us....
