Roman Giertych (L), leader of the right-wing party "League of Polish Families", and Andrzej Lepper, leader of the leftist group Self-Defence - new faces (rather mugs) of Poland.

This is confusing. Is the "right wing" full of fiscal liberals in Poland?

This "right wing" is as much "right" as Sahara is full of water.

This outfit is populist, not conservative. "Populist" basically means "embodying all the reasons why the founders of the American Republic feared and loathed 'democracy'".

Giertych wont be bad in his education resort, so at this point only Socialist Youth and their commie parents should be REALLY pissed off. :-)

Lepper? I wont to say that I’m not peasant, probably as you both. Peasants voted for him, so they have exactly what they wanted.

Could be better? Yes! Blame PiS AND PO!

"This is what we hate and despise and what makes us different from all those Polish liberals."

Who "we" are ?

Great, now you'll have a chance to think about such a noble "statesmen", like vice Prime Ministers Lepper and Giertych.

You know, my parents have political views similar to yours, and we argue about politics pretty often.
No matter what a stupid move Kaczynski brothers and their PiS would do - my folks always found an explanation. Usually it was a Polish version of "that's all Bush's fault", which is "that's all Platform's fault".

But today even my parents were just stunned with the view of Lepper and Giertych in the Presidential Palace.

Especially with Giertych as the Minister of Education and vice Prime Minister.

And you're saying about PO's "overwhelming cynism"?

So how to call the situation, when some politicians rank another one, announce him publicly as a person without any credibility - only to give him a very high position in a government 1 week later?
Tha's not an "overwhelming cynism"?
