Whoops, sorry about that Conclamo. In retrospect, I think I read the thread title as "Pro-
Bush surge". My bad. Also, the first line of the article is:
Quote:

"A majority of Labour voters welcome President George Bush's state visit to Britain which starts today, according to November's Guardian/ICM opinion poll."

So I think I had it in my head that these polls were trying to show that British citizens were becoming pro-Bush. I can see how I might have read it wrong, though.
An added perspective... I'm studying in Mannheim, Germany for a semester right now, and I'm very pleased with how Germans here treat me. I was a little afraid of perhaps some anti-American prejudice, but I've quickly learned that people have nothing against the US or its citizens as a whole, they simply don't like Bush. And they are able to keep that distinction very clear, either intentionally or just by their nature. At least, that's the impression I've gotten from people here in Mannheim.
