Wow, I can't beleive someone from the US is bitching about how we don't get to vote for your PM. Well guess what, less than 50% of people in the US voted for Bush. Does that mean he's not duly elected?
It's the way our systems work. God I hate to get all anti american, but it's that kind of ignoracne that p*sses off a good chunk of the world. Basically saying "Our system is way better than yours" without even thinking about it.
Sure someone made a stupid comment, but attack the comment, not the system of government he lives under.
Edit: didn't read the whole thread when I posted, and didn't see your respones, but I stand by my post.

I was attacking the comment.
I didn't say once that our system was better than yours.
But don't talk to me about duly elected leaders when your own country doesn't have them.
I'd appreciate it if you'd refrain from extrapolating my comments to meet your misplaced anger.
There was ZERO ignorance on my part.
