German newspaper endorses Bush
EFL; hat tip to the Brothers Judd.TGA, is this your doing? [:-)] Europe's top-selling newspaper, Germany's tabloid daily Bild, endorsed George W Bush for United States president on Tuesday, saying he would do a better job fighting terror and not ask Berlin to send troops to Iraq. Bild, in what a spokesperson said was likely the first US election endorsement in its 51-year history, said Bush was a known quantity in Europe and had a better sense than Democratic challenger John Kerry of what Washington could expect from its transatlantic partners. "Bush knows that Europe and Germany do not have the military capacity for a significantly larger commitment of troops beyond their current deployments abroad," Bild journalist Hugo Mueller-Vogg said in the editorial . . . . "With Bush, we know what to expect. No one knows what John Kerry stands for and where he wants to lead America and the world." . . . Posted by: Mike 2004-10-27 |
