Cain was Ambassador to Denmark under Bush and contacted "Jayllands-Posten" on the First anniversary of the cartoons--according to Wiki-sometimes wiki-leaks is 'iffy'...
I will leave my original here because Sept 2010 was the 5th Anniversary of the cartoons...
and I do not know if the current US Ambassador- Fulton had contacted "Jayllands-Posten" or not...SO-
If anyone in the US is wondering why we are in the mess we are in - check this out-
Remember-US Ambassador Cain is following our administration's orders-thus- it would seem to me that our 'regime' wants to suppress our First Amendment -if they want to suppress Denmark's Free Speech--and Freedom of the Press...
The Danes - the Cartoons- and the the NO to Cain...
Being 1/2 Dane is making me prouder and prouder-I'm happy w/ their free speech stand..
Check the link because it has other very interesting links :-)
BTW-Remember this-Danish Crown Princess trains w/ Danish military-There are other accounts but- have to run...

George W. Bush was never a conservative candidate. He was more along the lines of a centrist. As such, it is not surprising that he had his ambassador curtail the reprinting of the cartoons.
As for freedom of speech, the only nation on Earth that gurantees that is the United States. Europe may front a "freedom of speech," but the sad truth is that they will actually charge you as a criminal if you really do speak your mind on all topics.
Ironically, we are moving in that direction here as well.
Thank you for the correction---
wonder if Wiki has it right on Ambassador Cain (Bush) for the first anniversary of the toons---
looked up the present administration's Ambassador-Fulton is her name..
No worries Carol, I very nearly saw it as you did. Your points are still valid regardless and I am still amazed that you manage to find these stories. I consider myself well informed, but between you and Angel I am beginning to wonder :-)
Good to hear the Danes told them to get stuffed. You cannot bargain or appease your way to peace with islam.
