so why is the left complaining that the American right won't claim him? *NM* random thoughts Send a noteboard - 26/07/2011 02:06:44 PM
Now we see fained shock and horror when the American right doesn't want to claim an extremist European right winger. So explain in little words so a slow person like me can understand, how exactly did it come to be the American left doesn't = European left but American does = European right? Or is it just European racist, fascist mass murders o children that = American right? I can see why you would so upset that someone would not be willing to accept that.

He was called what he is, a extremist right racist who hates Islam and integration, and then some Americans came and felt they had to make sure that he better be called the opposite, because the word "right" can never be something bad, you know?
