Oh, by the way, the fact that I (and many on this site) don't trust the Bush administration's motives nor find their statements credible is no knee-jerk anti-americanism. It's not even a can't get fooled again reaction to the Iraq mess. It's just that in Europe we don't trust our government, let alone foreign governments.

A society committed to the notion that government is always bad will have bad government. And it doesn't have to be that way. — Paul Krugman
