18 June – Strange comparisons

kurdistan24.net

”We’re not Baghdad Bob” reports one of SvD’s sources regarding the supposedly strong – but, alas, somewhat undocumented – support that Eric Ullenhag has from Liberal Party members around the country. (I don’t know how, but this person is connecting support for Ullenhag with Saddam Hussein’s spokesperson during the Gulf War in the early 90’s. Can you?) Even if todays’s vote in Stockholm throws its weight behind Ullenhag it isn’t enough to topple Sabuni – unless of course, the delegates disregard their district’s votes.  (In which case the list of problems within the Liberal Party would get a lot larger.) This should be unlikely though, really. Ullenhag will likely go back to Amman, and everyone gets to adjust to a new (interesting and exciting in this writer’s opinion) political reality in this little pond of Sweden
