World crisis of confidence in Bush

Who can blame them?

Hell, we don't trust him either, nor do we trust the American corporations, which he and Cheney represent, and neither should the rest of the world.

World crisis of confidence in Bush - Times Online:

Global distrust of President Bush is mutating into an almost worldwide sentiment of anti-Americanism, according to the world’s most comprehensive poll of international opinion, published yesterday.

The Pew Institute’s survey of 45,239 people in 47 nations shows support for the US has dropped sharply among traditional allies in the West, including Britain, as well as substantial declines elsewhere in Latin America, Eastern Europe, China and the Middle East.

It found “a broad and deepening dislike of American values and a global backlash against the spread of American ideas” – although US technology and popular culture is still held in high regard.
