Crying in Europe

One more reason “why they hate us”:

A key risk is that the recent slide of the U.S. dollar against other major currencies could become “disorderly,” the researchers said. The dollar has declined sharply since early 2002 against both the European common currency and the Japanese yen, complicating the task of European and Japanese monetary policymakers, said Charles Collyns, who heads the IMF team that monitors the U.S. economy.

Those damn cowboys in the US control the world’s economy because their economy is the most powerful one in the world and it’s controlled by all those Jews who make economic and political decisions that their puppet government must respond to and we in the rest of the world are doomed because…well, because.

You know the line.

The drop of the dollar against the euro and yen are hurting those countries because it means we “stupid” Americans don’t buy their goods, or travel to their vacation spots. Not that any of this has happened yet, nor is it completely due to the currency exchange rate.

Howard Dean’s and Wesley Clark’s campaigns have been actively soliciting donations from citizens of other countries. The rest of the world wants a say in how our country is run. Is there any better reason not to support a Democrat this year?
