has been seen habitating 'classic liberalism' sites
so if French-Algerian relations are good in a trade sense he's probably alright with it

He is liberal in the British sense of the word, not the American sense

I think he rates Algeria, so I don't think he would mind at all.

Nolan sister is right
too much Ayn Rand not enough Noam Chomsky type liberalism.

Wouldn't say he'd go as far as Rand - more like Hayek and Friedman.  And I have little doubt he'd prefer Chomsky to nutters like Klein

if he out the country and hasnt been on for a while just let everyone else pick, then see what got left, thats only fair.

and wow australia is still there, think that has something to do with their tactics against nz??? lol

sorry bout that lads had a school exchange...anyways ill go with Australia.
