US media is really trotting out the tin pot dictators today

Edited on Sun Nov-13-05 11:45 AM by NNN0LHI

First Jordan's King Abdullah, now Pakistan's Pervez Musharraf. Gee why doesn't our media ever put an elected leader of a democratic country on for an interview? How about Hugo Chavez? Why not him ever? I thought we are supposed to be admiring democracies not dictatorships? Thats how we got into all this trouble in Iraq by making people like Saddam media darlings. Something is funny here.

Bush hates democracy.......After all he said himself that being dictator would be easier.......as long as he was the dictator.
