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.

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.

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.

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.

Another bunch of socialists runs out of other peoples money to spend on windmills. Something poetic about that. Remember this is the only bunch of folks who had a civil war and both sides lost-—wound up with a dicklesstator for 3, 4 decades. Maybe they’ll get together and start another crusade-—it must be the Jews fault? Or maybe they’d like to invade the western hemisphere again? They can’t even run a good bullfight anymore so there’s nothing to do but watch them learn the hard way——sorta like US.

The little shoemaker is very upset and has told his best buddy “Coma-dante” Castro that there will be a lot less money to steal with Conservatives coming to power. May it kill the bastard?? :) From here it looks like we could have ourselfs a twoffer.

And socialism fails one more time. Pity, they did such a good job of sucking up to Al Qaeda.

The article goes on to say:

“The voting comes against a backdrop of economic angst.

“Protest camps of mainly young people sprang up in cities around the country a week ago and swelled to tens of thousands of demonstrators who on Saturday defied a government ban on gatherings the day before an election. The growing protest movement reflects the strong disillusionment felt by Spaniards toward a political system they say favors economic interests and political fat cats in both major parties on the right and left over ordinary people.

“The government did not disperse the demonstrators, including the largest group camped out in Madrid’s central Puerta del Sol square opposite city hall. Protesters on Sunday voted to stay in that square until at least May 29.”

Two important points: People are angry about the political system that favors economic interests and fat cats in both major parties. This sounds a bit like Tea Party people who will probably end up disappointed by both the left and the right. Another fact is that Spain has 21% unemployment, a lot worse than us. Another important point is that Spain illustrates the difference between a democracy and a dictatorship. The Spanish authorities are not forbidding the right of peaceful assembly.

Spain has to reduce their regulations if they want to increase their prosperity...something that the Socialists would never do.
