It's not a big surprise - Oregon is a liberal state and everyone knows it. It has that death to old people law that only rivals Holland in its depravity. It went for Gore in 2000 and doesn't it have two lib. dem senators?

That's the flag of the Ancién Regime -- the Kingdom of France, which was overthrown in 1789. Vive le Roi!

Ahhh yes, the absolute and absolutely oppressive French monarchs. The problem wasn't in the overthrow of an absolutist monarchy, the problem was the philosophy behind it (secular humanism) which led to dictatorship and the ruination of France for all time. Compare that to the American Revolution (grounded in reformation judeo-christian philosophy) which ended in FREEDOM.

Take a hard look at France (the crap you just read) and Germany (11% unemployment). That's what the liberals have in store for our country.

The French are very sensitive about defacing the 'Tomb of the Unknown Collaborator'.
