26. What an odd attack on me.
Bush didn't back down on the ICC, Missile Defense, Iraq, or any of the other significant differences with Europe. Why expect him to readily back down on this?

The comparative economic figures for the US and Europe are a matter of record, not opinion. The Europeans at this time have very little margin for error before slipping back in recession. A prolonged trade war can have the same effect on the US, but not as soon. This leaves Bush in a position of relative strength.

How does recognizing economic realities become a case to call me "ignorant"?
