World fears new Bush era

Three million more Americans may have thought Bush was a good leader than Kerry, less than 2% - the slimmest margin of victory for a President since the early 1900s, but the rest of the world certainly doesn't share their view. A new poll from BBC World Service showed that .58% expected Pres. Bush to have a negative impact on security and peace. Only three countries surveyed thought Bush would have a positive influence, India, the Philippines and Poland - lest we "forget Poland." Other interesting tidbits from the poll, Germany now hates him more than France - I'm sure our lovely Senate will be renaming German chocolate Cake soon to counter this, in a very appropriate use of Tax money I might add. Liberty Chocolate Cake, yum yum. Also, now they don't just see Bush as bad, but they are incorporating their dislike of Bush to all Americans. "Asked how Mr Bush's re-election had affected their feelings towards Americans, 72% of those polled in Turkey said it made them feel worse about Americans, 65% in France, 59% in Brazil and 56% in Germany."
