Always Look Below the Surface for Gold

Fire of Liberty

While you've probably heard various law-makers like Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Jay Rockerfeller along with people like Wesley Clark and Medeline Albright repeating the mantra that surveys show we're hated throughout the world. Even though these individuals cite these startling numbers, they're really are just looking at them through Rose colored glasses to harangue the President. The only problem is they're too quick to jump at the numbers instead of dwelling deeper and deeper in the polls to find a different story. Luckily, Anne Applebaum, with the help of the magazine Foreign Policy, has penned a wonderful article to demonstrate that US is truly loved when you get into the polls internals and break it down via age or socio/economic categories. Reading Applebaum's article will show you that the world doesn't quite think like the foreign policy doyens believe they do. So check out who really likes us.
