What are you discussing here, the_old?

Is this in response to the French opinion poll, the Spanish one, or what, exactly? It sounds a bit non sequitur from here.

Do you need a recap?

The world at large, specifically Japan, Canada, Britain, Spain, France and five other countries, generally speaking, it says here, respects us less since Bush came in, likes us less, trusts us less, thinks of us as no kind of model, and all that jive. That's this thread; what's yours?
