Democratic vs. GOP Presidents

A BUZZFLASH READER CONTRIBUTION

Bush was forced to creep in the back door of the White House after his 2000 selection after his limo was pelted by eggs. He was heckled in the Parliament of Australia. He was snuck in the back door of Buckingham Palace while his likeness was toppled by 250,000 livid Londoners in the street out front. He was forced to meet on an offshore island in Spain under heavy guard. Ireland required the largest force in its history to protect him from tens of thousands of protestors. He is contemplating not speaking before the Parliament of Canada for fear of being publicly ridiculed once more. In Chile, nearly thirty thousand protestors jeered him while his Secret Service got in a fisticuffs with that nation's elite police. And these are our allies that so hate his guts!

Wherever Clinton ventures in the world he is enthusiastically greeted "as a cross between JFK and Elvis." JFK himself was met by 1 million wildly excited fans in Berlin. And another million in Frankfurt. Two million waved American flags screaming "Vive le President!" in Paris streets. In South America, in Ireland, Italy, Canada everywhere he traveled he was beloved, admired, and cheered. In Pakistan and India hundreds of thousands flooded the Ganges river in flowers, and filled streets to cheer Jackie Kennedy when she made good will tours on the President's behalf. They called her "Durga, Goddess of Power" and "America's Queen." Tens of millions of citizens around the globe gave likenesses of JFK and Jackie places of honor in their homes. Leaders from Nehru to De Gaulle and even our enemies like the Soviet premier professed crushes on America's First Lady.

No amount of spin will change world opinion about the vile Bush junta. Except for his blind followers, the world's people know the difference between genuine decency, intelligence and caring versus a thieving, lying, mass murdering thug cartel. As Ghandi said, every brute in history gets what they deserve....and so eventurally will Napoleon Bonehead.
