Anti-Americanism

This is a well balanced and insightful article from this week's Economist on Anti-Americanism. The article coincides with President Bush's trip to 'Europe'. Henry Kissinger famously used to complain that if needed someone to represent Europe; he didn't know whom to call. Mr. Bush is being given a number in Brussels. As the dollar sinks, the deficit soars and our expensive military stretches itself so very thin; it is time that the United States recognize the importance of Europe. Maybe then the Anti-Americanism will commence to abate.Economist.com | Anti-Americanism
