I made a personal vow not to get caught up in the American Elections and not to mention it online.  This media circus has already gone too far, it doesn't need any more encouragement.  Unfortunately I watched last nights news bulletin and I am outraged.
 
I had this feeling that certain Americans were self centred and blind to the world beyond their shores.  Last nights quotes for EX Mayor Giuliani were scandalous.  How dare he compare George Bush to Winston Churchill?  Churchill is one of the most important men in history.  A born leader.  A fighter.  Someone who was brought to power by the people for the people.  Someone who's beliefs meant that this world is now shaped the way it is because of his beliefs, his courage and his honour.
 
I fail to see any comparison to Bush - a man who came to power after a miss vote, a man who can not string a coherent sentence together.  A man who doesn't run his country but whom is controlled by his "house".
 
I am sick and tired of the way great historical and political figures are used in such a blasé form.  I only hope Bush does not serve another term, that way we will be rid of him and hopefully his dead weights too.
 
I think this just about sums it up:
Florida 2004 Voting System
