myata Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 Given the volume of manipulation in and around the election process, the question about what constitutes a true democracy cannot be simply dismissed out of hand. Everybody knew that the Iraq affair was a bogus from the start. There was a qualified team of independent experts that operated onsite with virtually unlimited access and it rejected all claims of presence of WMD in Iraq. That did not prevent US administration from manipulating the majority of country's population into acceptance of an unjustified illegal agression. As it has been reported in the news, companies of Wall Street were major political contributors to both main political parties in the US. Both parties that in some way failed to take measures to prevent current financial shakeup. Just two examples that illustrate that the question of manipulation is not the obvious one. Certainly, the democracy in Russia is less than perfect. The question is, what about ours here? And should we go on instructing others about their errors and failures, until we fix the problems of our own? Quote If it's you or them, the truth is equidistant
Brezhnev Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 Gorbachev, 77, won the 1990 Nobel peace prize for allowing the peaceful revolutions the previous year that brought democracy to Eastern Europe after decades of Soviet control. Marasmus of an old age + megalomania Quote ...If the Russains love their children too... (Sting)
PoliticalCitizen Posted October 1, 2008 Report Posted October 1, 2008 are you naive or from Russian embassy were you born without a sense of humor or did life do that to you Quote You are what you do.
Argus Posted October 4, 2008 Report Posted October 4, 2008 are you naive or from Russian embassy In fact, he is a Russian, and a strong supporter of Putin and Russian military aggression against smaller states.

That is just as correct as you being an Anglo-Saxon and a strong supporter of American military agression against the rest of the world. Quote You are what you do.
kengs333 Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 That is just as correct as you being an Anglo-Saxon and a strong supporter of American military agression against the rest of the world. Russia needs to restore its Monarchy. Interestingly enough, one of the possibles resides here in Canada, although she apparently is not at all interested in assuming the role. Until then, Garry Kasparov should be President. Quote
