Last fall this column published an article on Swedish Socialism. Here is an article that is not really a followup, but again points to the problems with European style Socialism that our president is so in love with. This time case in point, Denmark.

… seemed on the superficial level to offer continuity, it was actually an ideological reversal, back to the Liberal wing of the Republican Party. Though he lambasted his opponent Michael Dukakis, tarring him with the “Liberal” label, which Reaganism had turned into a dirty word, Bush himself was every bit a Progressive.
