"Don't they realize that the whole world hates Bush"? I've heard that so many times. It's the accepted wisdom.
I don't doubt that President Bush probably has more detractors than supporters world-wide. Yet, when I read that 65% of people in India are happy about Bush's reelection, that says something. India's population is more than double that of the recently expanded EU. In fact, there are more than 700m people over the age of 15 in India. That means that there are an estimated 455m people (assuming young children don't really care) in India alone who are happy about President Bush's second term.
That's almost exactly the same as the total population (pdf file) of the entire EU, including young children.
Just a thought.
