#2 Hamas is living proof that just about anything short of a ham sandwich can be democratically installed (and I'm not so sure about the ham sandwich either). As to whether it is worthwhile to elect such trash as Hamas is another matter entirely. It is for this reason that the Palestinians need to be made keenly aware of just how idiotic they've been to vote in a known terrorist organization.

#3 I meant the above comments to be transposed over to how sharia law can be democratically installed as well, and about of equal worth as installing Hamas.

#4 This just demonstrates the wisdom of Americas founding fathers and thier dedication to liberty.

Democracy is NOT the best form of government it is merely a way to remove the urrent rulers.

It's a terrible shame that Americans have lost some of that recently with the idea that 2 people can agree to own a third.

Socialism is slavery. Fight the new civil war.

#5 Gee, I thought that Sharia was the replacement for democracy. Therefore this a-brain is saying that democracy should be able to vote itself out of existence.

Guess he's a big advocate of one man, one vote, once.

Unbelievable the moral / philosophical knots these transi,pc whack jobs can twist themselves into.

#7 Donner expressed amazement that his original remarks have been met with such hostility.

A measure of just how how of touch he is.

The key to American Democracy is not the rule of the majority; it is the just protection of the minority. Failure to recognize this is the root of much human suffering.

#9 MoO, that is so true, and THAT is based on the concept of individual rights.

#10 I was on a thread with a muzzie last week and he said that if the teachings in the koran were followed then democracy wasn't needed. His honesty and openness were amazing.

#12 Donner expressed amazement that his original remarks have been met with such hostility.

It is remarkable how appeasement-minded Europe still is. I think British PM Blair was trying to warn against this sort of krap in an editorial he wrote in the last few days. If I were Dutch, I'd think it would be good for Mr Donner to resign. People just do not see the threat to Western Civilization. As with the decline of the Roman Empire, people became more enamored with who would provide the greatest about of Government goodies, they ignored the threats, thus came the Visigoths.
