fifty helens agree: nobody likes bush

Kids in the Hall references aside, here are two pieces of interesting news: 1) Most of the world thinks that Bush's reelection has made the world more dangerous, and 2) a big majority of Americans now think the war in Iraq was unjustified.

Sure, the world opinion thing is getting old, but it's a new study and each time they release one of these things, Bush's international support is shown to have crumbled even further. This latest one was performed by BBC World Service in 21 countries; only India, Philippines and actually-you-forgot-Poland thought the world was now safer. (Link)

But this new poll of actual Americans is a little more interesting, because it shows a significant shift in attitude. As you'll see in the handy pie chart to the right, 56% of respondents thought that "the situation in Iraq was not worth going to war over." (Link)
