"As for the President of the US, even if i don't like him at all, he was elected, and we should respect the American people for that...."
Interestingly enough, he wasn't elected by a majority of those Americans who cast votes. He *was* elected by the Electoral College (an anachronism from the 18th century when no one knew how a state had voted until someone showed up from that state in Washington to announce it) and by a slim majority of the Supreme Court. If that election had been held under the FPTP rules that govern our elections here, then Al Gore would have won it.
Mike Harris is indeed a moron. I'd personally prefer that he be given as much speaking time as his throat can handle so as to remove all doubt as to his moronicity once and for all.
