Partly correct. No problems here in Croatia anymore. Serbia/Kosovo is hotspot for sure, but there won't be any war, I'm sure of it. Bosnia is another hotspot, sadly.

Slavoj Žižek, worldwide famous philosopher says that marriage between democracy and capitalism is near it's end. I was lucky enough to listen to this man in person - brilliant mind. -

And out of curiosity, why is a left-winger like you moving to a red state.
Glad to see someone here on the forum does
It was more of a joke, I can't see myself ever living in Wisconsin. Although from time to time I would like to move out of Massachusetts, or at least to a different part. -
Holland is slightly ahead of Sarkozy for the moment. -

You ever consider Michigan? Were a nice mix of left-wing, and right-wing influences, and our economy is actually improving faster than the national average.
Also, in the original post you said Wyoming, so did you mean Wyoming, or Wisconsin? -

Michigan seems like a nice place to live, I'll consider it.
I meant Wyoming. Nothing against the state or its people, though. Same goes for Wisconsin. -

Quote: Someone please point out to me the differences between Barack Obama and George Bush.
Obama has deported more immigrants.
Obama has charged more whistleblowers with crimes.
Bush’s new unconstitutional wars were more overt and ground troop based. Obama’s are more drone based.
Barack Obama has better grammar and appeals more to cultural liberals.
George W Bush has a Texan accent and appeals to cultural conservatives.
They come from different racial backgrounds.
Bush is more into torture, Obama is more into assassination. -
And we're getting new elections in September, after our government fell yesterday after only 1,5 years -
Yep, and the worst thing is that all parties are crap. None of them will get my vote. -
you want to explain that?
