Kenyan reaction to apparent Bush win
Edited on Wed Nov-03-04 10:37 AM by nickinSTL
(note that I am not saying Bush has won, I think there has been widespread fraud, but I found this quote - available on the BBC - interesting)

Moody Awori, Kenyan Vice-President
I am a little bit apprehensive because the first term of Bush, he had come in as a lame duck.

Now it appears as if he is winning very convincingly. To me, I think we are going to see more dictatorship on an international scale. We are going to see more extremism come out of there.

We are going to see even more isolationism where America will not bother about the United Nations. To me that is a very sad affair.


This was the only sensible world reaction listed on the BBC 'World Reaction' page.

2. I think this guy is right on!
Everything chimpie did in his first term, he will do in spades this term.
Look out, world! You ain't seen nothing yet!

The old saw about no two democracies ever going to war is not operable anymore. When the bushies represent one of the socalled democracies, war is possible. France and Germany ought to hang loose.
If I were the EU(old European coutries, per rumstittie), I'd tell the UK to go fuck itself. They sided with chimpie, reap the benefits.
A lot more blood is going to shed needlessly in the next four years.
