Why? Obviously, they have very strong opinion of obama. I see nothing wrong with posting the article. Even without the fact that most Israeli's don't like The One.

Sounds like some in the government don't like what they have to say. But it appears they do have a following with some.

That's funny, considering your interest in what Europe thinks.

I don't know how many elections you have witnessed, but I must say the American electorate really doesn't give a rat's behind who Europe or any other country would like to see elected. You see, quite often that kind of "endorsement" is viewed as insulting and usually backfires (ask Kerry).

Of course, the obamatons think the world should have a say in our elections, they think obama having the love of Europe will somehow be a benefit to him. We shall see.

He, he, knew you would like that one.

Well , the ignorant certainly share that viewpoint. Of course.... for those of us who relaize it would be beneficial to be able to continue to use military bases and airspace in Europe, have anybody tag along on our next coalition of the willing adventure, and not to mention the fact thet the EU is our main trading partner with whom we share the largest bilateral trade agreement in the entire world....for those peopls Europe's viewpoint does indeed hold some significiance.

Why should she disappear?

Why don't you disappear?

I see no problem with the info, come on, there is nothing more looney then some of the goofy wacko left links on this forum from airhead america and others.

Anyone who would admit watching Keith Oberman should check into a straight jacket ward to be lifelong detained because your a problem for our society who is only going to make our country worse.

Has all the above miraculously ended?

I don't see us leaving our bases in Europe or being denied air space. Can you provide examples?

Are we going to stop trading with Europe? Any examples would be most helpful to understand how one can be so confused on US-European relationships.

Thanks.

These loons would rather give wartime enemy combatants at Gitmo our American rights then to support one of our allies only because they hate Obama and know him very well.

Is there more room at Gitmo for the liberals to live? Are they really on our side or not? I would say they are not? Send them to Gitmo with the others to be REFINED.

Sunshine Chick reminds me of a political version of the formerly married repressed gay man who suddenly finds himself and decides he needs to somersault out of the closet and be as FABULOUS as possible. I would have been very interested to read your posts as of a year ago.

I would suggest European opinions of the US Presidency matter infinitely more than that of an Israeli nut job.

Which is the dubious premise of your thread.

Bush had our relations with European governments and people at the worst it has ever been. No, relations had not frosted to the point yet of being denied military privileges, thank goodness!

However, improved political relations can lead to more favorable and increased trade between us. (Their economies are doing very well.) Also a greater willingness to partake in any future global military engagements. For us to pooh pooh their perspective would be a grave mistake.
