Love it Allan!!! Like a lot of you, I don’t live there so I can’t really say who is right. I do know that this is nothing new, especially when it comes to dictatorships, it’s usually ugly in the end. I have very little understanding of what it must feel like when you don’t get a say in your government. People complain about our system, people complain about everything, but just imagine if it were different. For those of you who really hated our last president, what if you weren’t alowed a say, there was no congress or senate, no election. Then all of the sudden it’s the year 2030 and George Bush is still your president, even if 80% of the population dislikes him and his policies and there is no change that will ever happen. You can substitute Obama for Bush in that scenario if you are on the other team, party isn’t important, it’s about the inability to change and both guys would probably get more out of hand if they never had to answer to the people ever again. Our leaders aren’t perfect, not even close, but the fear of the next election keeps them from getting too weird. If all current politicians were told they have their current job for life and they get to pick their successor, we’d be lighting stuff on fire in thirty years too.
