Silly Little Country

If you Vote for McCain

... the Europeans will be really annoyed by your arrogant postures.
On 'Overnight' I noticed both BBC and Deutsche Welle struggling NOT to emphasize this point. The Germans have every reason NOT to welcome Turkey to the EU; DW did emphasize Austria's opposition, I suspect as an ersatz opponent.
Obama's position is NO different from Bush's. Personally I think they are both wrong - Turkey seems to be headed for hell in a handcart (just judging from their elections) and I cannot see how attachment to the EU will improve the situation of either side.
But the media hypocrisy about this is appalling.
