Europe has become a giant, global sinkhole into a politically correct hell. Why the attraction ? Is it all just about hating America for one reason or another ? What do you think ???

A giant global sinkhole, and politically correct hell? All about hating America?
Broad and bold claims - any examples, sources, studies, or other evidence to support them?
You ask what I think? I think you should spend some time studying Europe before you make a bigger fool of yourself.

have you ever been to europe, you question makes it sound like you havent, because Europe rules, and its not a sinkhole and its not potitically correct. well if you have, you would see that they dont hate us, and they are perfectly nice people, and you might be forgetting the fact that because of america there hasnt been a war in Europe for 60 years. They f'n loved me, and why do you cons think its "bad word" to be called a liberal, I guess you would rather con us out of our Liberties so you r buddies companies can get rich... I admire Europeans because the actually give a crap about eachother and their countries, thats why they all have healthcare and jobs and help if they need it, and longer vacations, and better maternity leave, the list goes on,,, go to europe and have a blast, then youll change your tune

Excuse me, have you been to Europe ever? Aside from the expected intolerance of Nazis by Germany, politically correct is not a word I would use to describe Europeans.
Aside from any cultural attributes, the fact they have successfully created tolerant liberal societies with governments who have long ago found solutions to alot of problems that Americans are struggling with ranks high on the list.
For example, a good proportion of Americans can't afford health insurance, Europeans have socialized medicine.
Americans throw people in jail for a while for possessing harmless weed such a marijuana, Some Europeans countries smoking weed and taking mushrooms is legal.
Americans have a very poor public transportation system, very poor downtowns in alot of metropolises and sprawling suburbs. Europeans have excellent public transportation, healthy downtowns and more community then in America.
The list goes on. Sure, Europe has its problems, but I'd gladly take Europes problems for Americas problem any day of the week (and most of these arguments apply to Canada as well).

Well it's not a hatred towards America... Liberal-Americans admire the European way of life. It's believed by many that if we implemented some of the social and political customs of European countries like Britain, Italy, and France, our American way of life (that they also admire in many ways) can be improved. It's the idea of taking some lessons from your elders you might say... let's not forget that the United States is a young country that has room for social and political improvement.

I recently had a conversation with a friend of my very liberal sister-in-law. She was, for some reason, venting about "this administration" forcing its view of the world on us by censorship policies on broadcast TV. to wit, the lack of nudity on TV. She said something like, "Why, when I was living in France...they had nudity on TV all the time!"
i realized that if this strange little lib didn't see what was wrong with public nudity, she either belonged in San Francisco, or was beyond all redemption.
I answered.."So, you believe that France is the moral example we should all follow?" She agreed at which point I continued, "And I suppose we should all emulate the French habit of urinating in the streets? and giving up and surrendering anytime we encounter fascists and Nazis?"
LOL. she turned and ran off and ,thank God, didn't speak to me ever again!

Partially because they (the Liberals) hate the U.S., partially because Europe is mainly Socialist. But the part I don't understand is that until the U.S. established permanent military bases in Europe, the continent was in a constant state of war. Some country in Europe was literally at war with some other European country since the end of the Roman Empire. The past 60 years has been the longest period of peace in European history and it's directly a result of the U.S. military.

Because the president of the US says stupid stuff like "god is not neutral on the war on terrorism." Or another gem such as "god wanted me to be president." Whether you are religious or not anybody with half a brain can tell this is BS. Europe isn't nearly as right leaning as the US. I can respect religious people but not the religious nutjobs that are so common here in the US.

I think the EU will be the cause of the next great global threat in this world.
They are paranoid against Islamic terrorism and have allowed any liberties of theirs to evaporate. We all know what happens when liberty evaporates...

Why is it Conservatives are so simple minded that they can't love their country and admire other countries and their contributions too?

I don't know for sure that they do but I would suspect it is because so many of the European governments contain strong elements of socialism.
