World Hearts Obama, Hates Everything Else About America

Do you really think electing Barack Obama is going to make these people like us? Foreign poll favours Obama but shows hostility to US.

People around the world are pinning their hopes on Barack Obama in next month’s presidential election, according to an international survey published today.

I found this article through a referral from reddit.com, and get a load of this comment from a seriously deluded reddit reader in Belgium who apparently believes that LGF supports Pat Buchanan and the Vlaams Belang:

We’ve got our share of right wing *ssholes. You should see some of our reader forums-—it would make the littlegreenfootballs crowd envious. This p.o.s. loves Bill O’Reilly (see his ‘weblinks’ on the right), he is an elected representative and a vile populist (muslim bashing, socialist bashing, french-speaking people bashing… you name it, he does it), and his Milton Friedman-loving party stands to gain about 20% of the electoral votes in our elections next year. Add that to the neo-racist 20% that votes for Vlaams Belang, a party that loves to rub itself against the brown fringes of the american conservatives and pat buchanan, and you’ll understand why I fear it’s only a matter of time before we stop being a social-democratic-oriented country.
