ukrainien election

[thekraut]

don't you think it's funny that of all the nations it's america that's talking the loudest about illegitimate and undemocratic elections in ukraine?

[bernardo]

No.  Blatantly stuffing ballot boxes with thousands of fake votes, and preventing independent observers from scrutinising voting stations (i.e. deliberate rigging of an election by the authorities), is far more serious that a few accidental gremlins with touch-screen voting machines or dangling chads.

of course no mention of zimbabwe and its black fascist dictator, oh no

[Oneeyedvic]

And people ask why I am so cynical......

[bernardo]

That's because the rigged election in Zimbabwe was two years ago, and therefore not "news".

[myron21]

Yes blatantly stuffing ballot boxes is not subtle, they should have studies the U.S m.o more carefully, and bought electronic voting machines.

You go Myron and Bangkok. America doesn't care about democracy in other countries just as long as the political climate is stabile and that is good for trade. Look at the guysa they have supported, Pinochet, Sy Mang Ree etc etc
