I thought of that same thing today about Bush. And the administration was talking about that, too, in the last couple of weeks (our need to get out so we can respond appropriately to the rest of the world), although I can't find the reference now.

As an aside, did you see where England warned Bush he might not want to go there to promote his book, considering he admitted in the book he approved something defined internationally as torture and there would be threat of arrest?

If the GOP blocks the START treaty for political hay as it looks like they will, we're completely screwed as far as international respect goes. Russia doesn't worry me, and China really neither - but yeah, you get a North Korea pushing the edge and there it is.
