Democracy and the US

24May07

I was reading this article about Kazakhstan’s abolition of term limits on the president just now and noticed this gem:

The “it” is, of course, democracy, the imposition of which has proven difficult for the United States in recent years.

I didn’t have my glasses on, so on first sight I thought the author had written “the imposition of which has proven difficult in the United States in recent years”, and a Beavis and Butthead giggling attack overtook me.

If only Americans were that self-effacing.
