As stated, this is the reason why: <i>"But the true leader doesn't govern by these things. A leader doesn't protect his country by being chummy with other countries, by looking at polls and changing policies based on them....no, a leader understands that making the tough choices will make you enemies, but they make them anyway."</i> And, I don't care how nicely the policy was implemented. All that matters is that the policy was implemented.

There's the fact that our most important ally, Tony Blair, came under vicious assault from the Left-wing media. In other words, the same people who complain that Bush made the world hate us and has ruined our alliances, couldn't help but attack the best ally we had. 2. The Dems/media act as if they are a disinterested party merely observing the rise of anti-Americanism which they blame on Bush. When they are the ones who are whipping people into a frenzy in the first place. For example, there's no precedent for giving non-Americans captured fighting our country the full constitutional rights that Americans have. And yet from the beginning of the war Guantanamo Bay has come under assault as some sort of gulag symbolizing all of the "civil liberties" that the evil Bushitler regime has destroyed. Anti-Americanism and 'the world hates us' is nothing more than a propaganda tactic where the people who are largely responsible for it in the first place pretend to care that its harming a country they don't like to begin with.

The same people moaning about our loss of popularity are the ones who predicted exactly the opposite would occur. Schroeder and Chirac were to emerge triumphant over an EU that was in ascendency while Blair was defeated in an election and Bush was to be either defeated in 2004. Things have not worked out as planned for the left on the international scene.
