Europeans hold strongly negative views about GOP contender but Obama's favourability poor in Pakistan and Middle East
Ewen MacAskill in Washington guardian.co.uk, Tuesday 11 September 2012
The reputation of the US in Europe risks sinking back to Bush-era levels of unpopularity if Mitt Romney becomes president, according to new international polling published on Tuesday.
Only around one in 20 of those surveyed in Britain, France and Germany by YouGov held a positive view of the Republican presidential nominee.

Hello Dick Cheney. What's your point?
And you should take a look at the world's map before you answer!
Or are you trying to suggest we should only help people to achieve freedom if they give us their oil?

SW FL is the playground for the UK and Germany in particular, and I must say this is the strongly felt sentiment they offer regularly

The Republican think we forgot who TARP our money to the Banks and send the children to Iraq. And they are right. We forgot everything.
But the European and the world at large didn't forget how Republican lies dragged their own countries into a war and cause the current economical mass.

He's only been abroad for a week, but the Palestinians are accusing him of racism, the Brits are annoyed and Polish union leaders don't like him. Mitt Romney's trip to Europe and the Middle East has been marred by one fumble after the next.

Mitt Romney set a new world record: insulting three host countries in five days. What a nincompoop.

Sad but true. Though...there are more than enough ignorant morons just about everywhere on Earth.
Europeans, generally speaking, absolutely loath Mitt Romney. Even Rupert Murdoch's tabloid, the Sun, described him as "MITT THE TWIT".
