Is the Priminister of AUSTRALIA wrong,when today(est)28/12/07,after Benizir Bhutto's assassination he described it,quote "as an attack on Pakistan's democracy"unquote.?
Question being,can a dictatorship correctly be called a democracy?

• G'day Tani.Let's beg to differ.I reckon,as our PM,Kevin Rudd should speak of facts.Not let us try to decide what he is saying(virtually on all our behalfs).

• Plus,very unfortunately and tragically we will never know if Benizir might have been elected to run a democracy..........Who knows,General Musharraf might just declare the elections null and void and reinstall himself Numero uno!!!!!!!!!!!

• I was not implying that I myself thought that Bhutto was representing democracy, it is just that when I watched the news tonight the collection of quotes from international leaders tended to suggest that she was an ally of Bush and Co in the eyes of the media.
  Whether I agree with Bush & co / and media is a whole separate thing. :)
  I honestly don't know enough about Pakistan to have an informed view of the situation.
  Cheers :)

• I hope you have a good year too Ozzygob :)
  I'm actually naturally inclined to be diplomatic & docile (I'm trying to grow out of it, but that is actually my nerdy personality!).

• I' gunna replace "nerdy" with kind,thoughtful,considerate and finish up with by saying "Oh yeh,I know Tani,she's got a really warm,gentle and pleasant disposition."
  Right,I'm gunna stop this bit of flirting before your bloke comes knocking on me door with some what's going on questions......bloody politics,I should know better!!

• I'll have to be friggin careful coz barnacles are razor sharp,so I'm off to watch the cricket.Give ya bloke a nudge and tell him I reckon he's a lucky fella to have such a charming barnacle to play with,without getting cut up.
  I've gotta admit I've never heard that barnacle expression before.
  It's a ripper.I'll feel really friggin guilty if I use it coz I'LL know,to meself,that I've just nicked it off the net.

  Enjoy the cricket.
