While it appears that many were pinged at random, I will add my two cents. First off, there is a big difference between American Conservatives and European Conservatives... for the most part.
Also, the EU press is whacked at of thier mind. Anyone that deviates the slightest bit from the status quo are branded "Far right," or "Extreminst". As far as I can tell, he was anti-immigration and thus a "Right-Winger". It is really rather pathetic.
I hate to say this but it might serve the the EU right by watching thier continent disintegrate before them. It might do the US good to see FIRSTHAND what happens to them.
As for pinging me, go right ahead. As long as it does not interfere with my plan for world conquest, I'm good with it! :D
What!!! Is that all you are going to give us?!!!
