#1 Hmmm... I just ran a survey and found that I don't care what they think.

#2 The question here is how the poll was conducted. With a sample size averaging 200 per country, are the country numbers statistically significant? Did the BBC poll people until it got the result it wanted or was the poll a random sample? I think journalists, who are some of the stupidest and most ignorant people around, don't seem to understand that non-journalists have figured out that they are no longer simply reporting the news.

#3 Gee with all the positive press we are getting who would have thunk it.

#4 A majority of people surveyed in a global poll think the re-election of George Bush has made the world more dangerous..

For terrorists and tyrants, yes.

#5 For terrorists and tyrants, yes.

Gosh, B-a-r, glancing at the roster of UN member nations, that's just about half of them.

You know, I'm starting to take unseemly pride that Bush's re-election is causing so much wailing and moaning.

#6 I'm with RC! I could care less about a eurostan poll. We had a poll on November 2, 2004 and George Bush won that, end of story.

#7 Ok...here's my poll....I think Chirac is an idiot, Schroeder needs to learn how to make a marriage work, and Mexico needs to get it's average education level up to the third grade. Oh, and Turkey can go to hell. (Yeah, I know, it already has.....)

#8 "You know, I'm starting to take unseemly pride that Bush's re-election is causing so much wailing and moaning."

Flip that coin over onto the other side and imagine how shitty you'd feel if Kerry had won, and we now had to listen to the EUnuchs' smarmy bullshit about what a "wise" choice we'd made.

#9 Dave D. If Skerry had won it would be the same BS. The Anti-US non stop hate mongering of the all the worlds Press is astounding. Most of it is pure crap too. I has to do with the fact that most other countries need a wookie to look at because their own domestic situation is a total POS. The US makes a good distraction since we are so unlike anyplace else.

#11 Being right is more important than being loved. Why lower our sights to the levels of France, Germany, etc.?

#12 How many different ways do we need to say it before "the world" (read: BBC) realizes that WE DON'T GIVE A GOOD RAT'S ASS WHAT YOU THINK!

Get a life. Or better yet, dump socialism worldwide and get a future.

#13 I've taken my own little poll. M-1 Garand says, "Didn't I already shoot half those people?" Damn heavy competition AR-15 says, "You need to practice more. I like Blue Helmets." Mr. .45 was quiet and refused to answer. And Plinky the .22 just kept repeating "Kneecaps! Kneecaps!"

Frankly, I have no idea what their poll answers mean, but then, being a red-stater Imperialist Warmonger, I'm sure that their answers are more important to me than what a bunch of kooks from Eurostan say.
