Bush Gets First Warm European Reception in Slovakia

These people remember all too clearly what it's like to live under a brutal communist dictatorship. They truly understand what Bush is doing and why he is doing it.

The contrast could not have been greater between Germany, where Bush's visit
drew 12,000 protesters Wednesday, and Slovakia, where a crowd of about 4000
braved blowing snows to cheer and applaud during an open air speech.

Since they obviously don't remember, one could only hope that France, Germany etc. could experience a decade or two of brutal totalitarian rule to get their minds right.
