More about the part where they spend the whole time whinning. And then act like most people want him out. He was voted in democratically by the constituents of his riding. He didn't cheat, he didn't get appointed, he was elected.
and I really don't care what the media say about him. I don't really like the guy necessarily but after seeing whinny webstes like that it makes me glad that he is in p*ssing those people off.
And really I have no real problem with what he said about Mandella. If thats what he thought then go ahead. If he said because of pettiness hell go ahead again.
I don't think that Mandella should have been made a honorary citizen, so really don't have that much of a problem with the tone of what he said.

I agree that he was voted in by his riding, and does represent the majority of them. But the people who made that website, also are in his riding. It's not whinning to voice opposition to someone who is governing over you, it's altually a democratic right and responsability. Should they just shut up, and except it?
That's like calling all Canadians who are upset about the sponsership scandel whinny. Would you vote liberal just to p*ss off these people?
Anders job isn't to p*ss off members of his own riding. His job is to hear their concerns and try to represent as many of them as he can without alienating anyone.
As for the Mandella part. If your views are as extreme as Anders, I'm not even gonna bother arguing.
