Netherlands to Refrain From Arresting Bush
President Bush must be relieved to have learned that he will not be hauled off in handcuffs when he visits The Netherlands to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the end of WWII in Europe, a war that entailed Americans playing the major role in rescuing Holland from totalitarian hell.
This despite the demand of a dozen plaintiffs before a court in The Hague that W be arrested for doing for Iraq and Afghanistan what a previous American President did for the Dutch. The left-wing activists are also annoyed that Bush has the good sense not to recognize the International Criminal Court, possibly on the grounds that its idea of justice might consist of indulging in just this sort of infantile stunt.
In denying their request, the Dutch court ruled that arresting our President "could have far-reaching consequences for US-Dutch relations."
There would be consequences, all right.

Should have made it a provision of the liberation that they would not be allowed to subscribe to socialist/communist ways.
I don't really get why these people wanted Hitler and Stalin out when what they have now isn't much different.

Don't have a very warm and fuzzy feeling about the socialists in the EU.

No, not really.
The word "wankers" comes to mind (please forgive my French)
