Yurpean Sociamalism

Was watching a bit of Chris Matthews blathering on last night, something about how last night was all about the Obamas saying we're not from some bizarre strange place like Norway, we're actually from Amurka. He wasn't actually knocking Europe, more just projecting the idea that Real Amurkans think it's weird and horrible.

I get that plenty of people can't afford to travel, and plenty who can afford it go elsewhere, but at least a few people in this country have actually been to Europe. And you know what? Most of it's pretty nice. I wouldn't import everything - and it isn't all the same of course - and generally there are probably some things American that Real Amurkans would prefer to keep as they are, but overall Yurp's pretty nice.
