Something funny from the Newsweek Best Countries list. They have Cuba listed for "Best Quality of Life" for Middle Income Countries. I wish we could convince some people to move there, Pelosi, Reid, etc... It is a few slides in. -------------------------------------------------------- newsweek.com Best Countries in the World Best Quality of Life Tobias Hase / AFP-Getty Images Low income: Ukraine Middle income: Cuba Medium size: Australia Large size: Germany Germany has the highest quality of life among large countries and ranks in the top 10 for quality of life among wealthy states. Two of its cities—Munich (pictured) and Berlin—are often ranked among the most livable in the world. Australia, with its active citizens and high standard of living, comes in first among medium-size countries. In the low-income category, Ukraine comes out on top, and Cuba outdoes its fellow middle-income countries in quality of life. Cuba also ranks No. 3 in education among upper-middle-class countries.

It seems to me that liberals were the ones to bring up the subject of corruption. They have looked under every rock to tie that nomenclature to republicans. They really piled on during the presidency of GWB. I Personally find it quite comical to see that the average citizen has taken it a step further and found that democrats (and politicians in general) are the Kings and Queens of corrupt. Lately, democrats have been especially adept at demonstrating the art. ;)
