Is this guy for real??

Normally I'm not big on politics (since I consider it something we, as being part of a parliamentary democracy, can't do too much about as a result of all the bureaucracy and red tape...), but what I saw on the news (and read on the net) today blew my mind. Apparently, one of our more flamboyant and well-known members of the Tweede Kamer (which is part of the Dutch Parliament), Geert Wilders, announced the idea that he wishes to abolish the FIRST ARTICLE(!!!) of our constitution, which comprises the central idea of non-discrimination. In
other words: one of the main foundations of our nation. He wants to replace it by an article that manifests the Christian and Jewish humanist culture as the dominant one in Holland (read: a little "Fuck you" to the moslims). This man needs to get his head examined and preferably seek another job (the words "municipal watse services" spring to mind).
I'd like to know whether this is a real, genuine attempt to get this ridiculous idea through, or just another joust just to piss people off and work himself on the frontpage of various newspapers - again.
I might be an idealist, but I would imagine that it is an impossibility to have one of our countries main founding ideas replaced by a load of crap that states the EXACT opposite of the former.
How does Mr. Wilders expect anyone to take him seriously anymore (nevermind the haircut...). Puhleeeeease....

this jackass should be thinking of changing hairdressers instead of changing the constitution.

I fully agree with you both here, have considered spending a few words on it myself, but refrained from it. Too ridiculous for words!
