Maggie's Farm

I'd be putting this in the same category that "Global warming is dead!" is in. Every time I read that global warming is "dead", I turn around and read another article crying how the diminishing sea ice is killing the polar bears (yesterday on ABC's news site). Now that I've read this article, I'm sure I'll read where some school board has decided to hire more one-armed black Muslim lesbians -- in the name of multicultural diversity, of course.

But yes, it was good to see both Merkel and Cameron 'fessing up. I honestly wouldn't expect it to pick up much steam on this side of the pond, though, for two reasons:

1. This is on a much different level than the "greedy Democrats, socialist Obama" meme that much of the MSM has jumped on lately. There's no one point to focus on, no one group to point a finger at.

2. We don't have anywhere near the problem with multiculturalism that the aforementioned leaders do, to the point where it's not really a "problem", just a trend that's leading us in the wrong direction. So it's hard to picture it becoming any kind of 'national meme', especially with everything else that's going on.

Still, bravo to Merkel and Cameron for laying it on the line. Let's hope it helps.
