See If You Can Avoid Smirking
While reading this
Thomas Friedman column on the dismay in Europe over President Bush's reelection. This was the part that gave me a grin:
"Europeans were convinced that Kerry had won on election night and were telling themselves that they knew all along that Americans were not all that bad - and then suddenly, as the truth emerged, there was a feeling of slow resignation: 'Oh well, we've been dreaming,' " said Dominique Moisi, one of France's top foreign policy analysts. "In fact, real America is moving away from us. We don't share the same values. ... In France it was a very emotional issue. It was as if Americans were voting for the president of France as much as for president of the United States."
We often commented over at Kerry Haters that Kerry was better suited to be the president of France.
