Didn't this guy play bass for Motley Crue?

And what sort of message is he sending to his own, home-grown, Basque terrorists at ETA?

Two words: Terrorism works. All the Basque separtists need to do wait until Zapatero takes office, then let loose with a large terrorist attack. Zapatero will fold like a house of cards, and the separatists will get their wish.

Is Al-Qaeda now thinking Spain would be a good place for their new training camps? Why wouldn't they think the Spanish are easy targets for further extortion?

“David,” the world’s most quoted window frame maker

David is like "Pony tail guy" from the first Clinton campaign, asking Clinton in a town meeting to treat the public like children.

The funny thing is, when I hear "Andalusia", I think of the song, also known as "The Breeze and I", written by Ernesto Lecuona. Caterina Valente had a big hit with it back in the 50s.

What were the percentages in the vote in Spain? I keep thinking how angry the Spaniards who did not vote for Zapatero must be.

[Wright is right!]

I'm wondering if this guy's ever been to Spain. Andalusia is a region, the Southwest of the country. The populace there has a completely different outlook in life than, say, the Madrillenos. Flamenco is rife in Andalusia, unknown in Madrid. People look differently, having come from different heritages, and their speech is markedly different as well. The pace of life is slower, and the region is more, uh, artsier.

I'm completely baffled as to what he means in the article, especially since he didn't mention Andalusia in the body of it.
