Diane Sawyer, et.al.

Accepting the Award for the
Democrat Media Complex ...

“

I must really be asleep at the wheel these days.

I listened to ABC's Diane Sawyer gush about democracy coming to Egypt yesterday evening. Did they hold an election while I wasn't paying attention? Because what I saw was mob rule, not an election.

And no matter how much

journalists like Sawyer wish it to be so, mob rule is not democracy.

Her sudden deep and abiding love for democray in Egypt falls squarely in the "careful what you wish for" rubrick. I s'pect were mob rule in the USA to win the day, folks like Sawyer would prolly be the guests of honor at numerous necktie parties. [badanov]

Which is why the U.S. is (or was) a republic.; 2/12/11, 12:19 PM

Maybe they don't want to talk about over half the states working with considerable success to kill health care?; 2/12/11, 12:57 PM

bocopro said...: Taking one quote each from Churchill and Mencken, the best argument against democracy is a brief conversation with an average voter. It is nothing more than the art of managing the circus from the monkey cage.

Still, tho, it's better than most other methods of selecting a government that mankind ever has tried.; 2/12/11, 1:40 PM
Anonymous said...: Democracy is the best way of selecting a government, but it is much more important how the governmant is allowed to use its monopoly on force. If you have discretionary decision making, then the government will act arbitrary, because that is its nature. If you have rule of law, requiring all similarly situated people to be treated the same, govt will be rule based. If the government has limited scope and powers, there will be more freedom, more will be organized by voluntary decisions of individuals than by dictates of an elite.; 2/12/11, 1:54 PM

That's one reason why the founders didn't go with a pure democracy.; 2/12/11, 10:49 PM

Rightfully so.
To place your faith in a pure democracy is to believe in the collective wisdom of a self serving mob of ignoramuses.
