Really? When on CNN this evening, discussing President Trump’s statement about “s—hole countries,” the National Review’s Rich Lowry asked lefty Joan Walsh whether she’d rather live in Haiti or Norway, Walsh responded:

“I don’t know, I don’t know. I haven’t been to either place.”

I’d think Joe Walsh would prefer to live In The City or perhaps out Rocky Mountain Way.

Seems to me, Joan doesn’t want to talk about it.

Last time the United States were undisputed champion on living conditions in 1970s. Today barely in top ten. A plenty of nations has better wages and infrastructure and Norway with all its downsides considered is certainly one of these. For the Norwegian to emigrate is like for an American to move to Mexico.

The US has demographic realities Norway does not...yet. The US has been importing 3rd world cultural vibrancy since 1965, so we have a bit of head start down the path which Europe has chosen to follow.

I’ve been to both places. No contest (despite the cold and long dark winters). Haiti was the closest thing I’ve ever seen in real life to how I picture Hell.

I haven't been to either place, either.

However, I am familiar with these nifty things called books.

Almanachs containing statistics on the different countries of the world were always especially interesting to me as a child.

It was by perusing such books that I learned, e.g., that Haiti is about 155th on the U.N.'s list of "Most Underdeveloped Countries."

But I guess that Joan Walsh has never cracked a book.

Regards,

Oh, I’ve never been to Spain But I kinda like the music Say the ladies are insane there And they sure know how to use it

I have been to Spain and the lyrics are most pertinent. A lovely nation with good people. If you can speak Spanish it is very good. Unfortunately now married to a wonderful lady that also speaks Spanish. How I long for my youth long past. But Spain is still a great place single or married.

Not too many moving to the hell hole that is Africa either.

Let’s dop her in the middle of each country and pick her up again in 30 days. Then she can answer the question.
