MADRID -- Spain's ruling Socialist party has suffered a bruising defeat to conservatives in the municipal leg of elections and looked headed to suffer big losses in regional government races as well.

In the municipal elections, the socialists have lost big. People are upset about the economy and unemployment and have voted the socialists out in municipal elections across Spain. This is seen as an indicator of how things will go in next year's national elections.

Yep, it is time to clean house.

All Commie Dems and their counterpart Globalist RINO Pubbies must go.

Traitors deserve punishment.

After the 2012 election it is time for a replay of the House on UnAmerican Activities investigation.

Trials and all.

If voter’s in Spain are willing to smack their Socialist politicians, it gives one hope that we can be rid of Comrade O and the First Linebacker.

[A message]

senior Socialist party official Elena Valenciano said the results are linked to the country's economic woes - staggering unemployment and a bleak future for people young and not so young.

Go figure, Socialism results in economic woes, staggering unemployment and a bleak future.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THIS AMERICA. Vote out 0bama and his band of criminally stupid socialists in 2012.

[RandallFlagg]

Considering they voted socialist right after a major terror attack......

[dfwgator]

¡¡¡ Arriba España !!!

[PapaBear3625]

They are finding out that appeasement doesn’t work.

[The Magical Mischief Tour]

Its not like that at all...

The they are fed up with austerity and as crazy as it sounds he Socialist were the austerity party in Spain...

Fancy that! Did Al Queda forget to blow up another train?

But, but, pulling out of Iraq and all those neat green jobs and windmills and solar panels and nirvana was just around the corner.

Socialism: FAIL.

.
You really think we have congress critters courageous enough to even bring this subject up after what we have seen happening with the eligibility issue?

Oh me, of little faith.

Spain's ruling Socialist party has suffered a bruising defeat

Socialist? Don't they mean communist? Communist f**king spain up since 1937.

[org.whodat]

Duh, they smacked the socialists because they were not getting enough freebies. Not the other-way around, there is no fix for European problems, except to steal the middle eastern oil to keep funding their welfare states. Unless they really do decide to build a war machine and attack each other.

[Army Air Corps]

Ah, they want more “free money”.

[Army Air Corps]

Ah, they just wanted the free money to continue coming.

I wonder when it will occur to the socialists that the "country's economic woes - staggering unemployment and a bleak future for people young and not so young" are the predictable and inescapable end results of socialism.

[Shady]

....And incarceration for those who have stolen untold trillions of American wealth...for LIFE.

bruising defeat to conservatives

Define "conservatives" in Spain. The Spanish Civil war was between the socialists/communists/unions vs. large landowners/socialists/army.

In short, the Spanish people still got screwed by big government, no matter who won the war.

I am with ya. Dems are also Globalists. I am up for Isolationism for at least ten years to repair and rebuild these country. It has been destroyed by the PC and Globalism. The International Communisty is a major problem.

[screaminsunshine]

The first country to kick out all the Socialists and start over will be the winner. Get rid of everything “Green” or “Global”.
