The CSI Monitor gives us an update on the reaction from the world to Bush's Inaugural Speech. It doesn’t look good. But, what did we expect, anyway? It is not like BushCo has actually followed through with anything short of their personal agenda. Let's get realistic though for one moment. We really cannot believe anything this administration says. Just ask Condi Rice - they always react with personal attacks.

Given the history of tyrannical nations, the world won't give in lightly to aggressive and ideological agenda. The American Republicans don't quite know how the world works outside their own suburban shell (save the few moderates like McCain, Specter, and others). Once they try to "fundamentalize" another country, they will nothing but resistance. They won't have France to blame either...
