AMAZING isn't it. Britain and the US (and others) are prepared to go to war to spread democracy; but the US has a president who openly populates the White House with his rich cronies, and gives people who bankroll his election contracts to rebuild Iraq.
Now Europe is to have the richest man in Italy as unelected president for six months. He changes laws to suit himself, controls the media and has the cheek to call others "fascist".
Not really a good advert for democracy are we?
