Rrrr. Rrrrr... OKAY, I'm sure that's bait, but it's a (relatively) slow week
here at Netscapegoat. (Besides, I've apparently already set a precedent for
responding to tentacularly dangled carrots earlier this week with my
response to the C'punk Seal question.) So I'm throwing better judgment to
the wind and leaping straight for the soft pink throat of this taunt.

To reply simply: Wrong -- the will of the people is as fickle as the wind.
Follow the will of the people, and you run your country by following fads.
Mob rule and all that. We're in deep trouble if we ever get a true democracy. 

Sorry. Just had to respond.

One of the things Adolph Hitler and Bill Clinton have in common is that
both were democratically elected leaders.

	That, and that the elections were bad decisions, without much
better alternatives at the time );.  But as much as I dislike Clinton, I
think that that's about as far as a comparison can go.
