Re: Obama & Europe
So why didn't the MSM give McCain the same level of coverage when he went to Toronto(all his campaign could afford) and spoke to a throng of dozens?

Reminds me of Bill Clinton. He got up there and played the sax and you'd think the man had walked on water. Obama smiles, speaks about.....nothing....and the clueless slobber over themselves. I would hope America realizes this isn't an Idol vote. We ain't voting for the best singer, the most attractive TV personality. This man will be the man making decisions, actually affecting the western world. Obama couldn't manage a bowel movement after a night of heavy drinking.

Re: Obama & Europe

Ironically, Obama is an isolationist and a protectionist. Are Europeans concerned about that? You should be. The part I do not trust is the extreme emotion and the dramatic mood swings, and what appears to be the lack of interest in his policies. Europeans seem to like him, which is an emotion. But we will have to live with his left-wing government and his plans for huge tax increases and huge increases in government spending, as well as the avalanche of regulations that accompany left-wing governments. The infatuation is strange to me. But yes - it is certainly relevant.

It is likely Obama will win, but a lot can happen before November. What if he is not elected? Then anti-Americanism will be even worse. It's very troubling to see this level of infatuation.

Re: Obama & Europe
Actually no. The Americans could care less what the Europeans think about our politics. Except for the Brits, the Europeans have not supported our actions with much support for the last 20 or so years. That includes the Germans and the French as well as the Italians and Spanish. All of the European countries are right now enjoying a terrorist free nation because the Americans and Brits have taken the terrorists to task and have eliminated most of them. We are still working on it without their help. Remember the Spanish trains getting blown up? That scenario hasn't happend since then has it? Why? Because the Bush administration has taken the terrorist war to their camp/training ground. Iraq and Afghanistan has been and will continue to be the battle ground with the war against terrorism. Right now, Iraq is almost terrorist free. Afghanistan will be terrorist free within a few years.

I am truly convinced that such actions have a much more positive effect on the security on both sides of the Atlantic than invading a country and shooting at everyone who fights back.
