    As 's elections show, there's an unlimited supply of stupid people in the world.

    No kidding, what's with the nutbags voting for Hamas by the way? I hope Israel stomps them into the ground for voting for a terrorist group to run their government.

    Excepted that the election was recognized as being a democratic one, so you've got absolutely nothing to say if the results don't please you, and that "on average" the whole Hamas is probably less harmful to the world than GW Bush alone, and caused less deaths.
