The rest of the world also thought "Baywatch" was the best American TV show ever and David Hasselhoff was a great singer.

As opposed to the US's great taste of American Idol? Give me lifeguard babes any day!

TriRSquared - 2012-10-25 7:20 AM That speaks volumes.... as to why Obama needs to go.

Reality is, the US is far to the right of the rest of the world.  Bush alienated our allies in a way that created rifts that seemed unbreachable.  Obama was able to bring our allies back onto our side.  Romney is associated with the failed policies of Bush, and so the world is against him.

Oh no, a serious reply. better order a Royale with cheese and some mayo for my fries.

Are you sure it wasn't David Hasselhoff who created those rifts?

Ah yes.  Our "allies" like Russia and China.  Of course Russia would want a leader that will "give them a bit more leeway" after the election.  You think China wants a US leader who will (attempt to) fix the trade deficit?  Who calls them on currency manipulation?

These "allies" are not "allies".  They are just not enemies at this point.

As for our true allies (UK, France etc..) again, they want a leader more like themselves.  Far more to the left than the US currently is.  So again, of course they would want a democrat.

Take this poll every year for the last 40 years.  I guarantee the "world" will always pick the Democrat.  It's not news.

"France was the most strongly pro-Obama (72%)."

Should tell you a bit about whether or not Obama is a Socialist.

Nope.  David Hasselhoff sang at the Berlin Wall when it came down.

Hmmm... Maybe that's our problem.  Hoff sang while he helped "Bring down this wall" very Reaganesque yet world peacy enough for the Dems.  He has a great public safety background as an officer in Baywatch, a traditional heroic job (Repubs) yet was probably in the union (Dems).  He was heavily involved in homeland security (both) but did his work though private industry (Knight Foundation).   We have totally put the wrong names on the ballot.

So that does it, Dems, you're welcome to go anywhere while us Repubs must stay here because we're not welcome anywhere else.
