Ruff Tuff Creampuff

Everybody's favorite homecoming queen, Condo Leeza, is apparently preparing to read the riot act to European governments over their desire to confront us about the torture and illegal detentions the U.S. is running on their territory.

It's a pretty stupid thing for her to do. Support for the Bush administration is running at slightly over one-third in this country, and she has even less credibility over on the other side of the pond.

As John at Americablog says, "It's time to call Condi's bluff. She has no support in this country, and certainly no mandate to go alienating (Europeans) any further."

This is the dumbest Bush move yet. You don't go into a neighborhood where people are on the verge of deciding to kick your ass anyway, and threaten them so as to make them madder than they already were.
