You constantly criticize certain people for being "too conservative," when in reality... extreme liberals are just as detrimental to America. Normally, I would be incredibly surprised by a statement like that... but I've had the same debate with random Dutch people about why the U.S. is this big, bad, conservative country time and time again.

The only country I can think of that is as far left as you're looking for... is Venezuela or Cuba... and we all know what kind of thriving lands of Marxism those are!

Well, Chase, you've been in Europe for a while now, so you would have to know by now that most European politicians are less conservative than the most liberal American politician. Hell, our liberals are considered right-wing overhere. Socialism is big in Europe, not that I'm a socialist, I am a liberal (in the European sense of the word).

I'm not looking for a far left country by the way, most european nations have liberal-socialist coalitions to some degree and that's fine with me. Well maybe I should consider moving, since probaby the Christian fundamentalists will become part of the new Dutch government, but I have good hope that their coalition partners the socialists and the center/conservative Christians will be able to control the damage that they could do.
