I believe that the euros hate any president that is percieved to be strong such as Bush. They fear any government that is not socialist. The euros allways get all wet over very liberal U.S. presidents and presidential candidates... they feel, and rightly so, that they can badger weak, socialist presidents.
The strong Bush went to play his war games in Iraq, while alot of people outside US were against the war.
Bush continued to talk about the threats of WMD which Saddam has and literally called french "silly".
Seemingly alot of americans agreed with Bush, renamed french fries to freedom fries, talked about all the WMD hazards and insulted frenchies & europeans.
Then US invaded Iraq, overthrew Saddam's goverment and finally caught him too.
Meanwhile the objective suddenly had changed to liberation of Iraq and people were left wondering "WMD what?"
Recently alot of these pro-war people has began to object the war and many even wants the troops pulled out of Iraq.
HELLO, didn't these people know IT IS A WAR and those are not any products you can return to the store if you come to second thoughts!
Bush is yet to find his WMD and Iraq is more unstable than it's been for a while
and in a single month theres been more US casualties than even during the major operations, while Bush is planning to give control of Iraq back to iraqis... supposedly for the democratic regime.
