Why would Bush even care what Europeans though of his Anglo-American-Zionist policies anyway?

Why this should suprise him is beyond me. He was warned that would be the case long before the invasion.

Yeah well common sense doesnt appear to be one of Bush's strong points. Although that can be said of most American politicians.
The most pathetic aspect is how Bush continually evades having to take responsibility for the shit he's done: from the economy, to Iraq, to Katrina, etc. Although this may have to do how pathetic the opposition puts up a fight.
