am, of course, impressed by your wikipedia skills nonetheless! You
wield the sword of Googled facts clumsily, though. France's government
has probably displayed the most progressive political Darwinism
imaginable over the course of time, mostly due to its people's refusal
to lie down and be shit all over (which, when compared to us, makes us
look like a moronic island of political scat fetishists). It's quite
admirable.

political party is key and relevant to your voting then you really are
a mug, but I may be misunderstanding what you're suggesting.
going to try and out-smug everyone on the list in nearly every thread,
at least get your facts right, and your opinions a bit more logically
though through. I get really bothered by people who tell other people
their opinions are irrelevant if they're not an expert on a subject,
then insist that they're an expert on every single thing they can look
up online.
empire and the puppet government in some depth.
