funny that this thread got bumped and reminded me of lethrneck... i was just reading about pim fortuyn and thinking how fucked it is that the whole political spectrum in the states has shifted so far to the right (always has been comparitivly, but more so now) ... i'm having a hard time getting my head around the fact that fortuyn was considered far right wing because of the whole immigration issue, when he was an openly gay former marxist sociology professor, wanted to increase the number of teachers in schools, improve the technology of their (already universal) healthcare system, decrease military spending, disentangle the media from the government, etc... they already had gay marriage, legalized marijuana and prostitution, euthanasia, etc....
...any nederlanders on the board? next time you have a candidate that is too far right for your tastes, please refrain from assassinating them; send them over here to represent our green party.
