Is a photo with the queen worth it
Mark Steyn:
"According to The Spectator, "George Bush needs to be pictured with the Queen to impress voters in the forthcoming presidential election", which must be one of the loopiest assertions even by the Speccie's recent standards, at least since their claim that the (non-) looting of the Baghdad museum was a put-up job by American art dealers. The notion that footage of "Bush riding in a carriage alongside the Queen" could be a decisive factor next November is true only in the sense that those disastrous pictures of Michael Dukakis looking wimpy in a tank were a decisive factor.
"...As to the derangement of the crowd, they are impervious to reason. After two years of warnings from clapped-out Arabists that the incendiary "Arab street" was about to explode in anti-American rage across the Middle East, it remains as unrousable as ever. Instead, it is the explosive European street that remains implacably pro-Saddam, pro-Yasser, pro-jihad, pro-Taliban misogynist homophobes, pro-anyone as long as they are anti-American.
"...Bush-hatred is just a form of cultural self-hatred."
