it was a democratic election, with a democratic result.
Live with it.


I hope you are not saying that we should not question the wisdom or folly of the events in Spain. If you are, too bad. As you put it, "live with it." We won't shut up.

Yes, I hope the entire world can "live with it". The Socialist Government certainly did show "their stuff" right away, didn't they? And they aren't even in power yet.

Maybe it was a good thing. People who are undecided what they think about the Socialist philosophy, can just watch many of the European countries. So many of our young people don't know about the Berlin wall, or why the US went in to help Europe during WWI and WWII, or who and what Stalin was. They don't understand Socialist history.

We will all be able to see where the new innovative companies are being started, the unemployment rates for their people, how productive each country is per capita, how much each country actually contributes to the needy in the world, etc. And when terrorists again strike anyplace in the world, we'll see which Socialist countries come to help...with how many people, and how much money, and how quickly.

I feel sorry for the majority of the Spanish people. So many of them are still in mourning, and so many more have been directly touched by the events of a week ago.
