in the US and the UK, there is no left and right, there is only left and left lite

actually the burden of proof falls on the ppl who claim you do have a right wing.  i don't have to google the british parliament to know there aren't any there, you have "conservatives" sure, but they are centrists, hence "left lite"

don't worry, i'm not under the illusion we (the US) have any in our congress either, and we certainly haven't had a right wing president in forever.  we have a "right lite" but they are horrible.. i question whether we even have a republic or not, it's pretty much a full blown oligarchy like everyone else now

The U.S doesn't have a right?!!!!!

Ahahaahaha. Ahahah.

How about..the U.S doesn't have a left. Yes, that's right.

you could make an argument that the US doesn't have a left, i would disagree but you could probably argue it

but to say we have a right???  come on now, let's stick to posting in threads about bashing bush or something you know

[Rocket Queen]

When exactly did I "bash Bush"? As far as I am concerned making a thread where we can discuss his memoirs is not bashing. While I do disagree with many of his decisions I try to understand why he thinks the way he does, as I do with anyone with deffering opinions.

But let's stick to the point and go easy on the personal insults....shall we?

Please enlighten me though-why do you believe that there exists no right in the U.S? All you have done this far is making bold statements without offering anything to back them up.

On many issues the US government are well to the right of public opinion. That's no secret and the obvious example being Health Care. As far as issues that rarely if ever get mentioned, and more in keeping with the thread topic, Im sure continued military aid - to the tune of about $100 billion of tax payers money - to Israel so that they can continue committing atrocities on Palestinian civilians is also well to the right of public opinion. Or how about Dick Cheney's famous response to this:

Dick Cheney - So to Iraq Public Oposition Polls

Is that not to the right??

As far as the current coalition here in the UK goes, i have no idea what to make of it as of yet. Im curious as to others views on it as it stands, so i'll leave this be for the meantime. Infact i was gonna start a thread about it. i'll do that later maybe. But to say there is no right wing, or left, is odd. are the BNP centrist? Left-lite? can you elaborate on that?
