one major difference between the American neocons and the Norwegian "neocons" is that the former group definitely does not want to throw money at anything that doesn't blow things and people up. So no money for schools roads health care etc. but billions for bombs and delivery systems.
oh Norway Christian terrorist is more danger than Islamic terrorist. Islamic terrorist at least kill those who are in living in the land of god but don’t want to worship one god and don’t want to follow his command in his land but want to live a life which way devil in the name of freedom. Muslims never support terrorism it is USA who pushed Muslims towards terrorism to finish its enemy Russia in the name of jihad. and impose unfair war on Muslims. all the world Muslims condolence w with Norway
I did not vote for the socialist coalision because:
The government are hiring too many people, closing in on the free market.
In spite of that the quality of wellfare and health is declining, and you can now wait up to half a year for treatment. Their strategy has an opposite effect. Starting new businesses has always been hard in Norway, and the socialists make it heven harder. We are ALLREADY decreasing our income and increasing expenses. They only build wellfare, not industry.
Hello Vegrin, I was wondering if corporation with the EU is an election issue in Norway. Especially because Iceland is holding a referendum on joining, and Norway could become the only Nordic country outside the EU. Besides that Norway is already is a contributor to the EU structural funds, wouldn't it be sensible for the government to have a say in what happens to your money?
There is discusion about it, but the most political right "don't want to express themself about that before after the election) XD Persoaly i want norway to join the Eropean Union :)
The growth of the popularity of the right wing populist Progress Party (FrP) is very sad indeed. But I still have faith in my fellow Norwegian. So some portion of the population are morons, racists, egotists, fundamentalists, and whatnot. FrP manages to capture all those votes. Those people were always there, they just weren't represented in the Parliament. And I'm optimistic that the above mentioned groups are shrinking, not growing, in the population.
As an American, I see some resemblence in what is happening in Norway and what happened in 2000 in America. Under Clinton we had a booming economy, massive budget surpluses and respect from around the world. We took a chance on electing Bush and oh well you know how we turned out. Record Deficits, economic depression and constant wars.
Sorry to hear about all this, Vegrin. The Conservatives in the UK will probably overturn what passes as socialism here next year, but then we have a kind of seesaw system (tips one way for a while then tips the other). "Hard" governments are what people turn to in times of fear or anxiety. I suspect many European systems will shift to the right in the coming years.
Well from what I gather the Tories might be a better bet than Labour at this point. Good ol Tony really messed up his party I think. We have a seesaw system too. Just this time the comb of the saw will be pretty far to the right. Actually it will be pretty far in the direction of stupid.
AP is left historically anyway. In 1917 AP was in the comintern. They where hard core communists, that is why they didnt want the king. They broke with comintern in 1924 I think. I am now torn between SV and Venstre... And Venstre isnt really serious... hehe

Can`t say how much I agree on what you said , Vegrin. It would suck hugely if FRP wins the election.(Im from Kristiansund , myself.)
While I saw your vid I noticed I kept trying to guess your political alegience. : ) Hard to tell. : P
I don`t have too much clue about politics , but I noticed you called AP a party from the left ? Are they ?
In 1917 50% of AP was for kicking out the (then relatively new) king. But thats a long tine ago : )
