Norwegian elections, 2009

Believe it or not, something also happens outside the US

does anyone else in here give a ****? it's not a big country, but it's rich and it's neighbouring mine

[rah]

Hmm I'm sure 90% of Americans wouldn't know what country Norwegians come from, and 99% of the rest wouldn't be able to find it on a map. So I'm guessing most people won't care.

[Japher]

Norwegian's come from Norland which is across the ocean from dutchland, Wegian is their word for person or friend.

[rah]

I thought they were from Norweg. Just east of Span.

[Japher]

They are, but when Spic joined with Span and changed it's name to Spic and Span, Norweg change it's name to Norland since the maps had to be changed anyways.

In truth, few people care about Norway inbetween Winter Olympics.

And they seem to have a leftist streak lately, which is not helping matters much.

And they seem to have a leftist streak lately

ahhahahaha what?

here are preliminary results based on advanced voting. "no radical changes" is the only conclusions i'd make, since most of the votes haven't been counted yet

[Wezil]

The flower people are beating the apple people.

Is that a good thing?

[Japher]

Andre needs a better pic. I probably would have gone with the pudgy star

"apple people" are what you would call nazis (or is it fascists -- i don't remember what the current PC-approved term is). media in helsinki predicted they'd fall to 17% this election, based on undisclosed "scientific opinion polls"

everything left of the V-party is the current government, which needs ~48% to form a majority government

[rah]

I didn't know they had an IRISH party.

[Wezil]

Andre needs a better pic.

Apparently Andre is right of the Nazi's. I'm not sure we'd want to see their pic.

[Japher]

Didn't realize it was in a progression of evilness

Here's an update for you Americans, to help you in understanding our elections in a better way.

PRO-TIP: Red means "left-wing", or "liberal" in USA. European "liberal" is more like "libertarian" in USA.

I thought the shamrock stood for the drunks.
