Does the defeat of Australias PM a sign of things to come...?

Question

...Perhaps Bush's LAST ally in the pointless, fruitless, ambiguous "war on terror", a sign of things to come ?

Australia threw that guy out DECIDEDLY. Isn't it clear that the entire world has finally rejected the destructive policies of George Bush ?

Answer 1

Absolutely. Any "friend" of Bush and the Republican right in the U.S. is an enemy of the world, as far as the vast majority of the Earth's citizens are concerned.

Bush has done America no favors whatever.

Answer 2

No. It's temporary until George Bush leaves office. Other than India and the Phillipenes the rest of the nations on Earth hates him.

Our next leader has an intimidating task to mend fences around the world. Whomever it is, they deserve a chance.

Answer 3

No more than the French, British, and German defeat of their more liberal counterparts a sign of things to come. They elected more conservative leaders after they either resigned or were defeated in the polls. The Aussies ousted Howard because of internal rather than external affairs. As Clinton would have said.... Its the economy stupid!

Answer 4

You seem to have forgotten that Great Britain's new Prime Minister is more like Bush than Blair was, and that the President of France and CHancellor of Germany both love President Bush.

Answer 5

No cause now the neocon philosophy/agenda has spread worldwide look at sarkozy in france for example....and some of the eastern bloc nations and europe they are very neocon!

Answer 6

Its a beginning, but we have a long way to go.Unfortunately Labour could have put up a better candidate , who would stand up more to the US and really defend workers rights.Kevin needs more backbone and stronger principles.

Answer 7

He's just got a new friend in Sarkozy -so he mightn't be too lonely - bad luck Europe.

Answer 8

Yes, liberalism is marching on. Watch your backs, Cons
