 I've tended to steer away from political issues on this site (been there done that, not sure how good I was at it).
Still, with the polarisation of the eurosceptics throughout Europe, and the widespread apathy of the political chattering classes to acknowledge such, Mark Steyn bites back.
A politically incorrect, but very funny paragraph taken from the article concludes:
"In France in 2002, the presidential election was supposed to be between Jacques Chirac, the Left of Right of Left of centre candidate, and Lionel Jospin, the Right of Left of Right of Left of centre candidate. Chospin and Jirac ran on identical platforms, both fully committed to high taxes, high unemployment and high crime. Faced with a choice between Eurodee and Eurodum, the French electorate decided they fancied a real choice and stuck Jean-Marie Le Pen in there. Same in Holland until Pim Fortuyn got gunned down by a crazed vegetarian, the first fruitarian to kill a fruit Aryan."
Go read the rest of the article as it is a good read. Thanks to Iain Murray over at the Edge of England's Sword for pointing it out.
