First of all France is run by a center-right party. The Far Left are the communists that have a party membership so small you could count it on your hands. Like (most?) European countries France leans towards Socialism than Capitalism (althought thats changing). That also doesn't make it far left. Look at Italy, its even more Socialist than France, and its run by the extreme right.
I have said this before, I am Dual-National I grew up on the East Coast for but moved to France for a job. I vote in every election via absentee ballot. So its not like I dont know what I'm talking about. I was a Republican but changed to Independent when W was elected.
As for W.
I admit I detest W. I dont like him, his policies, or the people he associates with. He's so wrapped up in a very narrow ideology that he stubbornly refuses to listen to another point of view (from the left, for example). This radical ideology has proven wrong time after time and worse, he is ruthlessly persecutes anybody that critizes him, (such as the French, which really enraged me). He's also decietful, (its almost obvious that lied about Iraq) and about a host of other issues. I cannot think of a single worse American President in out history and we have had some real stinkers...Whoever wins the 2008 election will be an improvement be he Republican or Democrat.
I know many moderates, most cannot stand W, (of my circle I admit) the few that dont find him an complete abhorrence have major issues (like spending) with him. Even in Congress some of his harshest critics comes from the center, although the right is beginning to chime in as well...
