Chump change

While only 13% of Americans polled believe that Bush is primarily responsable for the Katrina fallout, the French press continues to sound the anti-Bush drumbeat, all the better to ignore the looming European economic slowdown (in truth, it was very slow already, so this is going to be, like, well, alot slower. In response to the trickle-down economy, the Europeans invent the slow-crawl economy).

What country is that? Is it far? We must launch an intervention!
