An article in the current issue of Foreign Affairs magazine began, "To 
European elites, the United States has become a poster child for bad behavior 
at home and hegemonic hubris abroad."  This morning the Electronic Telegraph 
web site stated, "ANTI-AMERICANISM is rising at such an alarming rate in 
Europe that it threatens to strike at the heart of the transatlantic 
relationship, Francis Maude, the shadow foreign secretary, has warned."

Has anyone picked up this attitude one their travels?  Or, is this just a 
high level intellectual debate?
