2. LOL, the Faux Wingnuts' Heads Are Exploding |
|
They are claiming:
1) That a vote against AZNAR is a vote FOR Al Qaeda.
2) That any U.S. companies investing in Spain ought to expect a 20% drop in worth.
3) That this is a victory for APPEASEMENT.
Haha.
The Spanish Ambassador said there would be NO change in friendliness to the U.S., that 8 yrs ago the Socialist Party was in power and enjoyed GOOD relations with the U.S. (Uh, that would be under President CLINTON.) That the new government would not ad hoc withdraw Spanish troops from Iraq, but wants a new resolution from the U.N. All of 1,500 Spanish troops.
It's fun to see the Faux heads exploding.

In fact they're much more centrist than what they used to be. However, they are still center-left, and not right wing like Blair's New Labour.
