Personal freedoms and liberties are greater than in the USA
Just as long as you don't offend anyone and have a differing opinion right? you must have missed all the articles about those Europeans countries and Canada trying to limit Free speech with Hate Laws but only Hate Laws that attack Christians right? as long as a Person is not Offending Islam it OK to say what you want Right?

Books , Movies , Cartoons , Politicians Etc have been attacked in all the countries you named for the liberty of expressing differing views and their personal freedoms have been attacked. you must of also missed where Sharia Law is being adapted in England on a limited basis now but with the flood of immigrants it will be common law shortly.

Do you want this country to be under International law where international Law surpasses our constitution? We have already had Justices state that they would defer to it , just wondering?

Why did the Pilgrims come to this country in the first place?

I stand by my statement... Show me one Western European country with a repressive soceity.

Denmark
Sweden
England
France
Spain
Ireland
Germany
etc.

Which one?

Look, I'm not here to defend other countries. I'm here to say America is mediocre at best because the last 30 years of Republican mismanagement and Reaganomics. If you believe the policies of the Republican Party serve you well, vote for them.

I for one do not, and I will do everything in my power to move this country in a new direction.

Is paying the taxes they pay Repressive?How about the high rates of unemployment?Also the church has to walk on egg shells or talking about what the Bible says about gays may be hate speech.

Keep believing the liberal left someday you may actually face reality.

The right has shown thier true colors that of dollar green and the fact they do not want the common working man to have it
and the Dems do. Both Biden and BHO spent the weekend making fun of Joe the Plumber. A plumber, how much more of a working man do you want. If they cared so much, why are the borders wide open. Why do they want to punish the companies that employ the working man? Why do they want to punish small businesses that are successful?

and you will commrade. The Great Nov. revolution is coming.

Lets us talk about Ireland:

Information on Irish Workforce, Ireland Economy & Irish Statistics for International Investments

Business Owner's Toolkit: Ireland's Low Corporate Tax Rate Fuels Interest in U.S.

Quote:
Ireland, which has one of the lowest corporate tax rates in the industrialized world, is unlikely to change its policies anytime soon, said Paul Reck, tax partner, of Deloitte Ireland, LLP, on January 31, 2008. Reck believes that Ireland's 12.5 percent corporate tax rate will remain on the books for the near future because of its beneficial economic effects. The development is likely to encourage proponents of lowering the U.S. corporate tax rate, which is three times higher, ranging from 35 to 39 percent.

Combined with lower levels of government spending, the tax changes have jump-started an economic miracle in Ireland: once one of the poorer countries in Western Europe, it now boasts the highest per capita GDP on the continent. Moreover, the influx of young educated professionals looking to take part in the Irish resurgence has also made the country's population one of the youngest in the Western world.
oh thats right, lower taxes dont work, because BHO said so. We need to "spread the wealth."

Look, it's obviuos you are a conservative Christian - not that there's anything wrong with that - but we in America have Hate Laws too, and I absolutely support them. Anyone that spouts hate with the intent to insight (kinda like yelling fire in a crouded theater) should be held accountable...

Books , Movies , Cartoons , Politicians Etc have been attacked in all the countries you named for the liberty of expressing differing views and their personal freedoms have been attacked. you must of also missed where Sharia Law is being adapted in England on a limited basis now but with the flood of immigrants it will be common law shortly.

Fact: Under the act, the sharia courts are classified as arbitration tribunals. The rulings of arbitration tribunals are binding in law, provided that both parties in the dispute agree to give it the power to rule on their case. Sounds rather like Judge Judy, wouldn't you agree?

The fact that people are being vocal about things they disagree with, proves my point.


Do you want this country to be under International law where international Law surpasses our constitution? We have already had Justices state that they would defer to it , just wondering?

If our government agrees and signs an international law, we should be bound to abide by the law. If it is ruled by the SCOTUS that the law is unconstitutional, we're out...

Why did the Pilgrims come to this country in the first place?

Uhmm - to represss and subjugate the natives...
