Surprise, Surprise

As Gomer Pyle would say "Surprise, Surprise," Europe and the Middle East hate us. The Pew Global Attitudes Project commissioned a study, chaired none other than by the feckless Madeleine Albright, finding that the French, Germans, and Russians and the Muslim-nations of Jordan, Morroco, Pakistan, and Turkey believe the United States is conducting its campaign against terror to control oil in the Middle East and to dominate the World. What about September 11? Couldn't that be the reason we are conducting the War on Terror? I look forward to chomping my teeth into this one.

P.S. In actuality, the Pew Global Attitudes Project is really run by the Tides Center. These are the same folks financing "Peaceful Tomorrows," the offended group of families crying foul over the Bush campaign advertisements that include pictures of 9/11.
