This country did not elect the guy, Russia tells him to shut up (Look at his dumb face on the picture)

2. Seems everybody knows Bush stole it.
"We do not want a freedom and democracy based on the US model, where the electoral system can be rigged so easily..."

3. We need to send this article to all the U.S. media outlets, with a note:
A note saying:

Looks like even Russia reports more real news than we do in the good ole U.S. of A.! They're talking about the election fraud, and the failed bush policies, his arrogance and egomania, and about the ridiculous burden our "commander in chief" has put on our military.

Good link, Raul! :yourock:

4. You welcome, we could add:
It's really shameful that we don't trust OUR OWN MEDIA here in the USA and, for that reason, we have to look for the real facts in the former Soviet Union's press!

5. And the teevee stations wonder how come they're losing the ratings!
If they'd bother to research and report REAL news, we could reclaim our Democracy, for one thing! Too bad our press isn't as "free" as Russia's. It would help their advertisers sell more junk!

6. They actually reported on the police state appearance of the Inaugural.
"We do not want a model of freedom and democracy which sees the President of a country slink into his office in an armored car which resembles a tank, guarded by 13.000 bodyguards plus countless other security personnel, creeping along a route lined by thousands of protesters.

Jimmy carter got out of his car and walked to the White House. Why can't Bush? The answer is simple: people do not like his Freedom and Democracy."

Of course our Media, though they commented during the Inaugural on how it looked like a police state (it was just sooo obvious), never showed the footage again and declined to analysis why it looked so much like a third world takeover.
