XiSd Tay,

I believe the phrase is “creme de la creme”.

You will find few dictators who are themselves ‘ball carriers’. Look no further, you have found the one and only.

From the the moment Obama won the IOWA caucus in the primaries – the first of the primaries I recall,I stake my bet that he will win the Democratic Party nomination – Hillary Rodham Clinton + Bill Clinton together, notwithstanding.

And when Sarah Palin put her name on the McCain’s Repbulican ticket, I knew Obama has won the Presidency.

The reasons are obvious.

To claim the mantle of a Senior Politician in the world, LKY cannot be seen to be eating his words too often.

First it was the WW2. Taking sides with the Japs and then running away to Cameron Highlands when they were defeated.

Next, the eugenics theory which ended with him begetting an albino grandson.

And lastly getting it all wrong on Obama. I think Iwould have done a better job in spotting talent than LKY. I was impressed by Obama during his speeches and concluded this was no ordinary politician. LKY couldn’t even spot that. And he’s paid millions?

LKY is known to eat back his own words and history have proven it to be so.

Look at what he has to say about detention without trial.

“If it is not totalitarian to arrest a man and detain him, when you cannot charge him with any offence against any written law – if that is not what we have always cried out against in Fascist states – then what is it?” – Opposition leader Lee Kuan Yew, Legislative Assembly Debates, Sept 21, 1955

“We have to lock up people, without trial, whether they are communists, whether they are language chauvinists, whether they are religious extremists. If you don’t do that, the country would be in ruins.” – Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, 1986
