I didn't say otherwise.
He's rather "anti-American" if the guys in charge are Republicans.
If he's anti-administration, the American-hating "other countries"
LOVE the guy!
Having served my country during another war (Vietnam), having served
in Europe (NATO) with 3rd Air Force, I know personally how the
Europeans DESPISE us. They put up with us because of the $$$ we spend
over there.
Even the Brits don't like us!
"and they're our closest allies, other than the Israelis."
As someone else just
>posted, one cannot imagine GWB getting a Nobel Peace Prize 20 years hence.
Are you aware that one PETITIONS the Nobel Peace Prize Committee? That
is, you ASK for it. Then you campaign, spreading LOTS of money around.
Essentially, the Nobel Prize can be BOUGHT if you figure out what to
buy the right people!
Perhaps before you get too dazzled over the Nobel Prize, you should do
some real research on it. Online. I was curious how I'd go about
winning a Nobel Prize (I'm a writer, and the first "Prize" *I* want
would be a Pulitzer. When I looked up the Nobel Peace Prize,
Step #1 is to ASK for it)
I am betting once GWB leaves the OO, if he gets out there and rolls up
his sleeves, and builds a hundred houses for ppor folk in Louisiana (N
O), and if he cruises down to South Africa and builds a village
hospital or two, and he cruises over to Rome and shakes hands with the
pope, he could well be a candidate!
SURELY you don't think Carter did all that "just cuz he's a nice guy,"
do ya?
smirk
If he's such a nice guy, why doesn't he answer my e-mails?
