Europeans View America as a 'Force For Evil' Under Bush


thinkprogress.org
Asking Europeans if “the United States is overall a force for good or force for evil in today’s world,” a recent Daily Telegraph poll found:

Anti-American sentiment still runs high [in Europe]. More people in France, Germany and Britain view the United States as a “force for evil” than good in the world, according to a poll last month for The Daily Telegraph newspaper of London.

Moreover, its unclear whether Bush’s European friends are even interested in hearing what he has to say, as many seem to believe his second term as president cannot end soon enough:

Res why does it seem that you are fond of Fascist America?

Face it what america is today is very shameful, I agree with Europes opinion, we are (thanks to bush and those dand conservatives) a very shameful country.

I hate what america is right now, the patriot act? Our founding fathers are rolling over in their graves! There is nothing patriotic about anything America has become.

A lot of this comes from the fact he lied and lied about WMD's in Iraq, when it was discovered he lied he acted like he didn't care, same with cheney, cheney is the worst of the lot, Bush is responsible for so much, and a lot of it does not get reported in the USA because of your MSM brown nosing his Admin.

If you remember there where a lot of countries who backed the war on terror, still do, but it began to over run into their countries, and even now he wants more with Iran, when it was found he had lied some countries like Japan, Italy and several more decided enough was enough and pulled out their troops, Britain stayed, this brought out protests everywhere, because people knew it was unjust, Afghanistan is not a problem after all that is where the terror was supposed to have been spawned, but now as more and more truth becomes available, it is sounding more like Osama was not behind it at all, so who was?

If it ever came out that bush knew and gave permission to attack the WTC there will be no hiding place for the man or cheney, the world has had enough, and even worse is we see people in Burma and Zimbabwe suffering so badly and he does nothing, bush has gone to far, and because the American people seem to afraid of the US government it looks like they agree with his policies, its even becoming apparent his admin is responsible for the world food shortage because of his stance on alternative bio fuels, the man gave permission to turn a main food source into fuel, how does that help food prices and availability?

The quicker the guy is out of office the better for the world and for the American people, America decided it was going to try and be a world police force and its backfired big time, now the world is saying enough this man is trouble he doesn't care about the American people, just his oil buddies, i dont understand like most of the people in Europe how Americans can sit back and allow what he has done.

And before anyone comes and tells me its none of the worlds business, let me tell you, the worlds woes where none of America's business, didnt stop the bush admin sticking its nose in where it wasn't wanted.

What America needs is a humanitarian president, someone who cares for America first, then the suffering of the rest of the world, but under the UN, thats what the UN is for.

Just how long do you think Americans can take this? I love America lived there for 5 years, paid taxes, didnt take a job from an American, i help teach Americans to do the job i did, but i also saw the way America treats its own people, its a sad thing when a little office jerk can over rule a doctor on the treatment Americans can have, health care should be free to all, with no exceptions, get rid of your insurance companies telling you how to live your life, or dont get treated, Medication should be free, or a small token payment made, get your homeless off the streets and into places they can be helped to build a life, stop the fear spreading by different government agencies, and teach your Government that they work for the people, not the other way around and for gods sake investigate all the suspicious suicides that happen when people try and stand up for themselves and try to tell the American people that there is dodgy dealings going on using your tax dollars.

You have to be willing to fight for your rights rather than allowing yourselves to be manipulated into losing your freedom, by being told its for your own good, Britain has its problems sure it does, but i know i can go to sleep tonight knowing if a member of my family gets ill they will get some of the best medical care in the world, free with no catches, and if we cant afford to get to the hospital, the hospital will refund the money we paid to get there, without any complaining, and i know we can have the medications we need without some ass in an insurance office telling me we cant have it because we have got the wrong type of insurance thats just crap.

Finally i wouldnt say Europe hates Americans, i would deff say we hate George bush for his lies and absent Humanity.
