>>It's absolutely amazes me. How at that level you can live in such an alternative reality. My guess is that bolton had no understanding of the history of Lincoln whatsoever. But it's engrained in his makeup now, that no understanding of a subject shouldn't stop him from speaking on it.

>The alternate reality went so far, that on some days in December of 1996, Sloba's TV Bastille (aka state TV, Channel 1) would report of heavy fog in Belgrade, and you'd see the buildings downtown... from third floor up. Below, there were anywhere between 100 and 200 thousand people demonstrating against stolen elections, but you wouldn't see them on TV. His politicians were sometimes mentioning the protests (which lasted for some 88 days in a row, with attendance varying between 80 and 500 thousand) as "a handful of malcontents". Later, I've seen a picture of about 20000 people (as much as can fit a front page of a largish book while still having some recognizable faces), with a large slogan "here comes a handful".
