Secondly, her selection is a bit skewed, isn't it? Perhaps because of the times. Communism has all the failings she describes, the social democratic movements of Western Europe do not

The social democrats skew very much on their own. The soical democrats in Sweden are much better than the social democrats in Norway. The fact that we never went to war doesn't count. And we are far better off with our economy post 1945 than Germany. It doesn't matter to a social democrat that Germany looked like this

As usual, Lars, I don't understand a single word.

It's obvious. He's planning to invade Canada when he wins the election. 50 U.S.. States + 10 Canadian provinces equals 60. Substact Quebec since they speak a funny language and Florida and Michigan which don't count in the election and you get 57.

And honestly, why don't I have a problem with any of that?

I'd keep Michigan, though.

Sigh. The Canadian territories get left out of the fun again.

I was watching an Irish political show (Questions & Answers) last night and the panel (made up of politicians and pundits) was asked:

Should Hillary Clinton back out of the race?

The answer was a unanimous yes.

I know it doesn't mean anything but I thought it was interesting that it was unanimous.

Someone said she should go before people lose respect for her. That ship sailed for me when she threatened genocide on Iran.

I think she lost respect with her "I get the white vote" comment.

Also, the master plan is for Canada to invade the US. You guys just have not figured it out yet. Look around and see how many Canadian you have met. We are everywhere.
