Spanish Conservatives Sweep To Power, Rout Socialists

  1. I thought you said, "the solution to Spain's problem is to devalue"

    That might be a "technical solution", but one they cannot do unless they want to voluntarily bankrupt all of their citizenry... Which I think they cannot do so will not do.

    But.. I could be wrong. Government does a lot of things without thinking through the consequences...

  2. I'd forgotten about the Madrid bombings.

    In Spain it can make a difference, in the US, which has a huge military budget, it will just put the other bunch of tax and spend criminals in charge...

  4. Huh? The Spaniards voted out the conservatives because it looked like Aznar's government clumsily tried to lie about the attack to get themselves re-elected. There was widespread opposition to Spanish participation in the war in Iraq before the bombing. Same for Zapatero's calls to withdraw Spanish troops.

    Actually it does, as Dumocrats are gutting medicare for $500 Billion dollars to help fund Obamacare! In addition to the turd-in-chief appointing countless czars that support health care cuts and rationing.

    Well, if their conservatism is "actually" like ours, specifically Obama's policies, then I guess this news about Spain is not really so good, is it?
