1. Colin Powell sticks his nose in

And asks them to have a re-election, as there are calls of election fraud. Does anyone else find that extremely hypocritical? That's EXACTLY the sort of thing that pisses people off, all around the world, and makes the US look like a silly, silly nation. We all know about the hundreds of allegations of electoral fraud, and the mountain of evidence to support it. Now, apparently, only the Ukraine has to have another election - the US is somehow immune from democracy.

5. Powell is doing this to put bush in the hot seat

Remember he's leaving his secretary of state post and i don't think he's pleased with how he was treated the last 4 years. This is payback to bush and his gang. Everyone can see the parallels between the ukraine election and the american one. That's the point powell is indirectly but obviously making.

I would, but just one person isn't going to create a tidal wave of dissent.
