Greetings from The Netherlands! Yes, its true. I'm an American working here in South Limburg area and it was a shocking upset. This party went from no candidates in office to 18 voted in and is now the majority party which is more important than just "putting an end to the ruling Labour party's post-war dominance". My Dutch coworkers are becoming very conservative.... I've been here nearly three years and Austria's Haider was hit with sanctions I pointed out to them that these political and economic sanctions consitituted a double standard but that was Okay by them even in as much as they recongnized it was wrong - just necessary.

Now my Dutch friends are excited! They view this guy as being one of the first to speak out with the truth - they are just wondering if he is all mouth and no substance....

Yep, I'm beginning to beleive that humans cycle in generational pulls, and every 3-4 generations there are swings in the political arena in which it goes back and forth between conservative and liberal - looks as if the Dutch have had 'nuff of the the Elite European Liberalizm for now.

Congratulations to your friends. There is hope.

Hallo, ook de groeten uit Nederland.

I also live in Limburg (in Helden, a toen between Venlo and Roermond).

I confirm the way we Dutch people are fed up with liberalism and the socialists. And about the Dutch people getting excited about him.

My father voted all his life for the PvdA, even my mother could not convince him of the CDA. But he became tired of the way the government treats people. He will vote for Fortuyn too! So will almost all people I know too!
