I don't believe for a second that the pot isn't going to work with the kettle. This is all opportunistic bluster, IMO.

Europe in particular has been openly trying to challange the US as the economic leader of the world.... I believe the some french official said they wanted to be a counter balance to the US. Thus the Euro, the European Union, etc, etc, etc. This is a chance for them to play international politics and criticize that which they wish to replace. You will counter that this isn't about the leadership of Europe, but about the people, but the leadership sets the policies.

This is why I lend no credence to it. They want to be in the position we have occupied, so of course they will criticize us.
