Yeah for a statement about a terrorist leader killing himself together with three children, it's both sad and surprisingly hilarious the way he brings it and turns even this to 'I am amazing!!' 

 

 

He always remind me of Lloyd Bridges from hot shots :d

Oh god, now he started just listing every country in that general area and saying 'they are there' :lol:

 

You gotta give it to him... That's smarter than a rather big part of his voters :mumble:Plenty of people wouldn't know where those countries are!

So the transition from communism to capitalism so quickly was very difficult, as for all eastern European countries

 

Yes, but the former comunist opposition rules in Poland since 2005 for good. One group has stayed on the conservative side and the other side pretends to be liberal. The former communists have formed a three-way coalition with the new modern sociallists but only finished 3rd in the elections. The agrarian Christian-Democratic party that has been there since forever finished 4th and the latest far-right project was 5th. Their leader returned to Sejm after a break of 27 years :lol: He's been through like four other far-right parties in between but was actually elected to European Parliament few years back.

Yes. Poland is a conservative country leaning on the right. That's what 40 years of communist rule does to you :p
