Guys - there are MANY posts on DU lamenting that the "right wing cancer" cannot be defeated here and that all libs must move to Canada or the EU. I say "GO NOW SCUM!"

Here is a sample of what is going on over there....

"12. That's how I feel: I am moving to Spain anyway for three years... for my job, and I have to say I'm very relieved. It's not because of Bush, but I did feel like it was a "fallback" plan in case he won. However, I am not sure I'll be returning, depending on what happens over the next three years. I too wonder what we are trying to win. What are our values, not as DUers, but as a country as a whole? I have always been proud to be American but now that our rights are being gutted, our democracy is being overtaken by corporate power and religious fundamentalism...what does being an American mean anymore? I would like to stay and fight but half of the country is against me and my values. I don't want to be part of this global killing machine and I don't want to support its wars with my tax dollars! It may be a bureaucratic solution, with its problems and pitfalls, but at least the EU is attempting to forge a new, more peaceful union with human rights guarantees and checks and balances on corporate power. People came to America long ago seeking freedom...I wonder if it is to be found here anymore, or whether looking elsewhere is the right thing to do?

I do love this country, but I love human rights and justice also, and if this country is going to be bought and sold I guess I'm not sure what I'd be dying for if I were to put myself on the line for it."

Wouldn't it be a lovely country without them.
