I just reviewed my post and actually, Byron, I was poking a little fun at the labels that you conservatives apply. Anybody who opposes Dubya's Armies is a terrorist......right? Well, the world disagrees with you and Dubya, but then arrogance is such a family value for him that I'd guess those billions of opinions are meaningless anyway.

And on a related note, I read part of an article today that notices the power of the EU. That is, the Euro Community has banded together and pooled their economic clout to a large degree, and there has been a powerful effect. The article pointed at soft drinks as a simple example. You see bottling volumes now expressed as liters. Because the EU does not recognize Standard (American) measures. So, the mighty Coca Cola Company has falled into step. I wonder if you can see where I'm going with this. What countries is America sufficiently close friends with right now that we can play some of these economic games intead of being just the victim? Ummmmm, England, maybe. Apart from that, we are pariahs. Thanks to Dubya's "fake cowboy" method of diplomacy.
