"Democracies always reflect a country's culture and customs and I know that," said Bush. "But they have certain things in common: they have rule of law, and protection of minorities, a free press and a viable political opposition. "


I'm sorry, but considering the Gerrymandering in Texas and the wall of silence the adminstration has constructed between itself and the press corps, I find that statement highly amusing.
