When it looked like he was still going to win in the re-do this year, they arrested him. His crime? Placing the interests and fortunes of Romanian citizens above the one-world-government dictates of the European Union and NATO. The next time you hear someone lamenting the &quot;death of democracy,&quot; ask them their thoughts on Romania. You'll quickly learn that &quot;democracy&quot; is the least of their concerns. Instead, they favor total rule by the &quot;experts&quot; they feel are entitled to impose their will on anyone that disagrees.
