World Still Waiting For Their Unicorn Shipments

Posted on February 7, 2009

Apparently, all is not well in HopeyChangyLand, or, as Don Surber puts it “Hope. Change. The rest of the world still hates us.”

bloody unicornThe US, for the first time since 2005, has surpassed Russia in positive ratings, with an average of 40% compared with 35% last year.

But it is still rated negatively by 43% of those polled, down from 47% in the 2008 poll.

Views of the US have improved in six countries, but attitudes towards it in Russia and China have grown more negative, while most people in Europe show little change.

“Though BBC polls have shown that most people around the world are hopeful that Barack Obama will improve US relations with the world, it is clear that his election alone is not enough to turn the tide,” said Steven Kull, director of Pipa.

“People are still looking to see if there are significant changes in US policies.”

In other words, they are still waiting for their a** kissing unicorns. I think what they really need is some Maverick and Goose to sing “you’ve lost, that hopey changey feeling, ooooh that hopey changey feeling. You’ve lost that hopey changey feeling now it’s gone, gone, gone. Worked on Kelly McGillis.
