An international opinion poll, commissioned by the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation), has shown an overwhelming lack of respect for American Foreign Policy and a dislike of the current US administration. This does not surprise me, however it does sadden me that a once respected and admired country should fall so low.

The following is taken from the BBC report, read the full article by following the hyper-link:

This poll underscores conclusions drawn from several other surveys - that anti-Americanism is on the rise, and the more the US flexes its hard power - the more it deploys troops abroad or talks tough diplomatically - the more it seems to weaken its ability to influence the world.

many people living in america have no respect for the government anymore. As it should be so long as that dirty bastard is president, and his father has his hand up his ass treating him like his puppet.

I hate the Iranian government, but the Iranian people - I think it's a lot like that.

I hope and pray that when the Bush term is over the world will see the re-emergence of the old admired and respected America ... Bush really should learn to listen and talk with his enemies instead of threatening violence; the world is sick of wars and people talking up terrorism while at the same usurping democracy.
God Bless America!
