Yes there are differences in Social Democrats and pure rigid state Socialists, and we need to look at what they are. Good food for thought.

I lived in Austria under the Social Democrats for several years and then in Germany under first the Social Democrats and later the Christian Democrats. It was very interesting – the subtle and not-so-subtle differences.

Stay tuned and please help us keep up the dialogue!
Alan

As a European and a Dane (one of my professors at Georgetown once introduced me as coming from a socialist country – well NO I do not – I come from a social democratic country). Obama is leaning left in an American context on various issues but compared to being left or progressive in Denmark or other European countries there is a long way to go (in my opinion) – but I do understand why Republicans are trying to push this agenda.
