BBC POLL: WHY DEMOCRACY?

Twelve thousand people in 15 countries were polled in August

58% thought terrorism could destroy democracy

62% thought voting in national elections was very important

57% thought the US political system better equipped than China’s to tackle climate change

14% said they would be very unlikely to support the idea of a global parliament

That’s from a sidebar on a BBC News story.  A majority of the world thinks that terrorism can destroy democracy?  And only 14% are against the New World Order, I mean, a Global Parliament?  Parliament isn’t even a real type of government…

    Maybe you missed the latest poll of registered democrats - when asked if they personally believed that the world would be a better place if the US lost the Iraq war, over 30% said that they thought that the world would be better if we lost… Wow. No wonder talking heads like Biden spout the malarchy that they spout… So how many of your congressmen believe that they would do the world a “favor” by us losing?

    A Black Oak acquaintance tells me that you might know where I can find Damosan. I need to talk to him. Do you know his email address?

Now and then we had a hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be pirates.
