Sweden or Switzerland. I couldn't remember.

I am, however, anti the 'everyone must have a gun or their human rights are violated' lobby and I am well aware many would disagree. PS, Happy New Year |

No... it just proves that some tend to focus on the evils of the US to make it seem as if it's the worst place on earth. I read the Micheal Moore book and there was nothing in it that had not been extensivly reported in the British press, also I though the book very "dumbed down" in a tabloid press sort of way, for an un-educated reader. Thank god I live in the UK and my ancestors didn't jump ship 200 years ago. Another thing I read last week that made me grin was the biggest cuurrent cause of rain forest depleation is?????? Oh yes.....soya growing to feed the ever growing ranks of vegetarians, LMFAO. XxX Michael Moore is a joke. His claims are outlandish. He is a conspiracy theorist of the worst kind... loudmouthed. The saddest part is that he believes himself and sheepple (sheep people) from all countries follow his lead. 'Kate Oh come on Kate, are you saying his claims have no merit? I admit he's a propagandist, but his underlying theory is valid. Christine No they are not, his movies (and no doubt his books as well) are propped up by very careful and disingenous editting, clipping together sound bites to make conservatives appear to be cold and heartless, and the left to be all warm and fuzzy. I haven't read his books, I was commenting on his documentary. Christine |
