<p>Really.</p>

<p>Stalin was elected, too.  So was Hitler.  Many third world tyrants are 'elected'.  Those bozos all know that the 'form' of democracy is important to be 'legitimate'. They are completely uninterested in the substance.</p>

<p>Puh-leeeze.  No, I don't want to hear about GWB from people unhappy with the results of 2000.  You guys will have a real (vice bogus) chance to undo that in 2004.  </p>

<p>Refresh me - who ran against Saddam?  Or thugs like Mugabe?  Or Bashar Assad, for that matter?</p>

<p>Speaking of <a href="http://www.bootsandsabers.com/archives/001709.html">Mugabe</a>...</p>

        This same organization acted to defend the Hitler regime. John Reith wrote the Nazis would &quot;clean things up&quot; even as he did his best  to shun Winston Churchill.

The BBC&apos;s current allegiance sickens but does not surprise.

        You mean you didn&apos;t hear about Saddams unanimous reelection vote???  How could he possibly be a dictator?   I mean - all those men at the voting booths with the AK&apos;s were there to make sure it was a fair election - right?  Sure...

        The Beeb would probably say Bush is a dictator.  Remember, he was (s)elected!  Down with public broadcasting.
