They are still bitter - a lot - about the last 100 years. If you want to know about the theory - look at the proponent of it, his or her influences. The Europeans and the Brits have a totally different mindset about the World than we do. That is a fact. Read what Ferguson has to say about Churchill. He did NOT write and still today does NOT say what he could have - only Buchanan had the blls to do that. Pat Buchanan vs This Niall Joker? No contest at all. Another thing: Earth to Niall - History like Economics is not a science. We actually come from a country where sh* gets done through human means and a certain level of faith in fellow man - of whatever origin. Not through some "destiny" or "divine right of the most glorious end of empires". Please sir, leave your mediaeval Brit/Euro influenced thinking in the mid 20th Century where it belongs. ---------- Use the Schwartz. 2011-01-09 01:53:05 Permalink
