Alone the knowledge that Bush isn't any longer the pResident of the United States will give the people back hope. The hope, the diplomacy will be used again to avoid wars, not to start them.
My feelings are because of Bush, the world became a more scary place to live. He triggered of something that no one can predict how it will end.

In Germany there is a latent Anti-Americanism at the moment. The Germans don't trust Bush and were shocked when he "won" again in 2004. Now, I know that the people of the U.S. aren't equal Bush, like the people of Germany aren't equal Hitler. To say "Nice post Bush" wouldn't be well read by the people. Like I don't like to read "Nice post Hitler.

Honestly, I was more than happy when in 2002 Schröder and the SPD won and not the CDU. Because then Germany would have been part of that war in the Iraq in some way. OK, we allow the US military to use our airports and allow them to fly over Germany and I don't know what else our government allows that the public doesn't know. But at least our soldiers aren't in that mess.

No idea if I make sense or if I tried to put too many thoughts in one post :crazy:
