You are changing the parameters, he was far left, now he is the most liberal on the US political landscape. Two very different things.

Say what you want about Donald Trump but there are homeless ragheads on every street corner in my town selling and shooting up babania on every street corner, openly pissing on street corners in front of children and being an overall malignant presence. Not exactly a great advertisement for multiculturalism.
It's embarrassing. There are enough Irish winos on the streets as it is, without being taken over by these subhumans. When I lived in New York you had to go looking for vagrants to find them. They are everywhere here! I hope Trump is elected. The alternatives are just as useless. Besides they are just a lightning rod for big pharma and the bank CEO's who really control the country.

I'm not at all. I'm say how far left he is depends entirely on the political landscape in which he operates. You disagree with that but this is politics and there are no hard and fast rules so I guess we'll agree to disagree.

No it doesn't, by that view, Enda Kenny is far right, as there is no real far right on the Irish political landscape. |

Well there is the likes of Identity Ireland but I take the point that they are very much on the fringes. Ireland is very much a nation of centrists.

And in the states there are parties like the aforementioned Communist Party, the socialist party and regional leftists like the Vermont progressive/ socialist Alternative in Washington for example. I am probably being a bit pedantic, but there is a ppolitical spectrum, it doesn't change, no matter what the nation. |

Well, you could argue that the "centre" is th median position in every country.
But the left right distinction is overly simplistic. |

One of the Judges on the Supreme Court has died and the Republicans are tripping over themselves saying that the next President should be the one to nominate the replacement. Attitude wouldn't be because any Obama nominee would tip the balance of the court to the liberal justices of course

F**king unbelievable. Bald politicking while the corpse is still warm.
Scalia was an incredibly intelligent man but some of his opinions were ridiculous. Sure if the next President is a Democrat, there'll be little enough they'll be able to do anyway. |

White House has confirmed Obama intends to nominate a new Supreme Court justice. Should be interesting as the person being spoken about by CNN was confirmed only a few years ago by the Senate on a vote of 97-0 to the D.C circuit of the U.S. Court of appeals. Would presumably put the Republicans on the backfoot in that regard.

Just been listening to last night's Republican debate there. It's tremendously entertaining fare altogether, like a real life Jerry Springer show. The bit where Trump royally clamps Bush and Rubio over September 11th and the Iraq War is box office stuff.

Looks like the entire vocabulary of the Fascist-Left.
It's funny that you never see that scale of abuse when Left-Wingers die. |
