Yawns no protest for W's last lame-duck Europe trip. (new level of suck)
W sucks so much they aren't even going to expend the energy to remind everyone exactly how much he sucks. Sucks to be him.


A duck so lame even protesters ignore him

The young anarchists, middle-age peace activists and established left-wing politicians in Germany have at least one thing in common: None bothered to keep a six-year tradition alive by organizing a protest of President Bush's arrival Tuesday in Berlin.

"Bush is not even popular in the role of the enemy anymore," wrote Der Tagesspiegel newspaper.

To the astonishment of local officials and media, not even a token demonstration was registered with the police for Bush's latest visit to Germany.

Bush's European tour will be met with a yawn

LONDON – When President Bush came to Britain on a state visit in November 2003, more than 100,000 people turned out to protest against him – the largest ever weekday rally in London. But when the president visits this week, we'll be talking closer to 100 protesters than 100,000. Newspapers won't be running multiple pages of open letters to Mr. Bush from the great and the good. The television schedules will go undisturbed.

Bush Is a Lame Duck. Bush-Bashing in Europe Is, Too.

Europe awaits Bush visit with relative indifference
