Gotta love those European Socialists 

Sometimes the European left gift wraps presents for American conservatives:

Socialist leaders attending a meeting of the European Socialist Party pledged that with the Democrats on the rise, strong ties could be renewed with the United States after years of cool relations with Republican President George W. Bush.

Howard Dean, chairman of the national committee of the U.S. Democratic Party, is attending the two-day conference together with the leaders of leftist governments of several countries and party leaders from across Europe.

“We are not anti-American, we want the real America, your America,” former Danish Prime Minister Poul Nyrup Rasmussen, president of the European Socialist Party, said in remarks directed at Dean.

It’s usually John Kerry on the receiving end of this sort of accolade. I wonder if Howard Dean was proud of this. Then I wonder if he’s smart enough to figure out that having this sort of statement reported might not be such a good thing back home.

Naaaah. Not a chance.
