Please explain this complexity

Please explain why -

When when the man with the most votes loses and the Supreme Court pays back the obvious loser's father with a decision for his son, it is called a "close" election.

When the loser of an election proclaims victory before the polls have closed and thousands of his supporters come out in the streets, the country with the "close" election calls the "landslide" election in the other country a "rigged" election.

When the biggest debtor nation in the world is writing checks like there is no statement on the horizon, it is called deficit spending.

When a nation has only a few billion in debt, when it is fighting terrorists successfully, when it has had one of the fairest elections of all time in any country, it is called a "failed" state, especially by the biggest debtor nation.

Green-card licking son-of-eel,

Your wicked 'gorment' doesn't own anything; the Fed controls all that paper trash you call global currency. You need to know a lot more than what you see on the idiot-box daily.

Back to your popcorn now.

do not mix up things,all things are simple if handled separately,"failed state "definition fits pakistan, and "biggest debtor" definition suits US.remember even in debt US is able to help out pakistan,Had it not been for US intel and drones Pakistan army alone could not defeat terrorists
