I thought this was a very interesting column in today’s Sun. I usually don’t read Ari’s columns because they can be a little on the dry side (long, serious, not super funny), but at the same time, I’m pretty sure he’s always saying something worthwhile. It’s just a different writing style than I prefer - I mean, he’s no Ann Coulter or Michelle Malkin, haha.
But anyway, back on focus. I thought this was an article worth reading, even though it is pretty much common sense. It’s nicely summed up common sense that provides many a retort to silly liberals who say France is where it’s at.
In an era when Europeans view their society as deeply troubled — when they seek to Americanize Europe — it would be silly of us to imitate policies that Europe is now rejecting. Our country’s founding goal was independence from Europe. It would be unfortunate if we were at this late date to adopt the discredited policies of a continent in turmoil.
The next time your not-so-friendly neighborhood socialist drops in for a chat, you can throw some of those facts at him/her. Not that he/she will really care… or listen… or even be near the same intellectual level necessary to comprehend said facts. It will still boost your ego just a bit to know you’re in the right.
Do they even have not-so-friendly neighborhood socialists off college campuses? Besides the insane asylums and the DNC I mean.

I’ve already had the neighborhood socialist drop by. She was from the demonRat party asking me to consider re-electing governor Dave. It was before you posted this blog, so didn’t have these facts to throw at her - dang. Oh well, I made it clear very politely that there would be no demonRat votes coming from this house;)
I dunno. We used to have parties on Labor day where we built a huge bonfire to be our lightsource. They were often difficult to get started.
So next year we were thinking of going with the European idea of just piling up three or four cars and pouring gasoline on them. That’s progress!
