Trying hard to make him look like a socialist. Even brings up a quote from Marx!<br /><br />It doesn't stick very well...she looks more and more stupid as the interview goes on.<br /><br />Sweden, as you know have free health care and schools (including University) for everyone. No less free than any American. No school shootings. We take care of more Iraqi refugees than the US (Iraqis that helped the US forces and now risk their lives if the stay in Iraq). Etc. Etc. <br /><br />OK, the tax is a bit higher but I don't consider the living standard to be below what's the case in US. The rich people are as rich but the poor is less poor. Not that bad if you ask me.<br /><br />/MikaelMikaelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04298497329787206697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36703636.post-83914175905285615782008-10-25T09:20:00.000-07:002008-10-25T09:22:34.451-07:00Joe The Brother...<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_Y6_s3O5Bj0&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_Y6_s3O5Bj0&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />A simple misunderstanding of what your connections allow you to do...Mikaelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04298497329787206697noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36703636.post-85528374772559506032008-10-20T07:01:00.000-07:002008-10-20T07:07:10.007-07:00Scary Palin, part 3<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/nokTjEdaUGg&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/nokTjEdaUGg&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />I've been in Africa twice...I can take care of that continent.
