i just dont get why there is so much hate against that man. it is not just ridiculing him, because he looks like a chimpanzee (honestly) or disliking his pollicies. they really _hate_ the person. so much is being blamed on him, that it has become a joke and he is being painted as the 2nd stalin, while at the same time a dumb marionette, who has no clue about what is going on.
now there is a report from a british newspapers correspondent in iraq, in which he tells about, what an american colleague said to him about bush and iraq
Quote:
But then she came to the point. Not only had she ‘known’ the Iraq war would fail but she considered it essential that it did so because this would ensure that the ‘evil’ George W. Bush would no longer be running her country. Her editors back on the East Coast were giggling, she said, over what a disaster Iraq had turned out to be. ‘Lots of us talk about how awful it would be if this worked out.’ Startled by her candour, I asked whether thousands more dead Iraqis would be a good thing.
She nodded and mumbled something about Bush needing to go. By this logic, I ventured, another September 11 on, say, September 11 would be perfect for pushing up John Kerry’s poll numbers. ‘Well, that’s different — that would be Americans,’ she said, haltingly. ‘I guess I’m a bit of an isolationist.’

while i do not agree with how my government handles its job, i do not think Schroeder is 'evil' and im certainly not hoping for his pollicies to go wrong, only to make his party lose the next elections.
