Wooo-Hoo! A Euro-weenie who gets it!

Gotta be rarer than hen's teeth.

Promoting multiculturism, as in various cultures with different values living together, is a destabilizing force.

And that's why it is so relentlessly pushed by the Left.

People prefer to be with their own - their own race, religion, cultural values, etc. It's one of the most obvious facts of life but few will admit it.

Aznar is one of the few Euros who gets it. He should have been the new Secretary General of the UN. The estupidos voted out his party after the Madrid bombings, but he is still fighting the good fight. I have heard him speak several times, and he is always right on target.

Spain--and Western Europe in general--seem determined to relive the Middle Ages. Evidently, they're going to get what they want.

Au contraire! Multiculturalism undermined Western Civilization just as it was designed to do.

Spain was on the right track with Aznar. They took a huge leap backwards. I guess the good news is that the socialists are f*****g things up so bad, they conservatives may be back in power next time 'round.

Multiculturalism is like forcing a bad marriage between two incompatible people, conflict and tension builds to a boiling point.

Okay, this is confusing. In America the number one beneficiary of multiculturalism--perhaps the only real beneficiaries, at least among ethnic groups--is Hispanics. The one language we are having shoved down our throats isn't Yoruba, or Zulu, or Quechua, or Mayan, or Chinese, BUT SPANISH!!! Even Esperanto is accused of being "too European" while Spanish is treated as the most revolutionary, most "indigenous," and least "European" or "Western" language in the world--the language before which all "Western" languages must bow. And who is now complaining that multiculturalism doesn't work? A conservative in Spain (where Spanish is called "Castillian" and resented by the Basques, Catalonians, Galicians, Leonese, Aragonese, etc.).

No, I'm not slamming a Spanish conservative (or insisting that English must be more widely-spoken than Spanish in the world as a whole, or opposed to the idea of Americans joining the rest of the world in being multilingual. But I do find the irony delicious.
