Thank you very much for your sweet comment!! :) That is really awesome your relatives fought....I can't say Any of mine did although both my grandfathers fought in the Korean war. I hope your relatives came back ok from fighting that war. I really admire General Lee ,I have read a few books on him. Sadly, I live in the north where they made big mistake but I am glad you won't hold that against me:)

I wish that EVERYONE has a good year in 2012 and that obummer will be gone in November!!

yes ^_^

@Enlightened Shqiptar Albanian immigrants are a great nuisance in Greece...They pretty much do what the black people do in the US..highly ethnicists, many of them living on wellfare and have a great tendency to crime... with a confused arabic-ex ottoman muslim identity blended with a communist one that ruled albania for decades and turned many of them into atheists...
today albania is the poorest country in europe after moldova...Greece's Human development index is ridiculously higher than albania's and pairs with that of the rest of EU countries...basically Greece cannot be compared to any other balkan country..when the average salary in Greece is 1000 euros and the average salary in albania, FYROM , Bulgaria, or Romania is 300 euros per month...

Liberals and socailist/communist are the very scum of the earth!!---I hate the MOONBATS assholes!

So, goldclaw, you don't like liberals either? lol

"Greece is the cradle of democracy"

correction: Ancient Greece. A lot of stuff has happened in between that differentiates the two. That's like saying that today's Egypt is the legacy of ancient Egypt.

Greeks are good folks, but I think any honest Balkaner like myself can pinpoint a major cause of the Greek predicament. In two words:

Work Ethic(s)

All we see in America is what the liberal media allows us to see about what is going on in Greece--It may be biased!

Hello and greets from Greece
