Well on is for sure, the French do think of themselves as a grand nation and I guess we Germans are not that loved. That has quite a bit of potential. Let's hope that Hollande will win, and so France will like to end the EU experiment. And well if in doubt. "Blame the Krauts". And indeed...

Well chosen. I guess you are as fed with the Euro and EU as I'm. You decided it's time to dive down into socialism and a "great" Nation of France. So vote for socialist an communist is a very proved way to dive down in poverty. And after this poverty come the markets. So you want a...

I'm puzzling. Yesterday the probably most important meeting of the FDP has took place. It seems the current point of view is: "Keep on going, don't change anything". Last vote the FDP got roughly around 15% During the last two years they have given up nearly everything what can be remote...

I'd come more an more to the conclusion that politicians are the root of nearly all evil. Or Gooddoers like our churces which there impertinents insisting that all men are in principal evil. From where does this sin believing come? How comes that politician do not see the bad things they do? How...

This week we are celebrating the 20th Anniversary of one of the 20th Century's most shining moments - the Fall of the Berlin Wall.

In his article in The Observer on October 4th, Paul Harris asks the question, "Will California Become America's First Failed State?" Governor Schwarzenegger's specious California Vacation commercials notwithstanding, this is a question that needs asking. Indeed, in a scene reminescent...

Socialism inevitably leads to destitution and famine in direct proportion to the thoroughness with which it is applied.

Since the election of Ronald Reagan as President in 1980 the United States has seen a monumental shift of political power. Prior to this the South had been a Democratic stronghold as a result of the Civil War. Even a hundred years after, it had not been forgotten that Lincoln, a Republican, had invaded...
