Default Bush, what's new? Bush, someone still loves You.
The poll options suck, so I chose them all.

Maybe lotm and Cort can use this thread to reaffirm their disagreement over the subject, and stop threadjacking all the other threads in which they both post

Look at this way. When you put the current 75% in favour of Kosovo's independance with the 33.33% for Bush rocks, you almost have 100%.

I saw an article about this in the NYT and found it kind of creepy

It's left catholicism (and o.ch.) and converted to islam

Interestingly enough, there's a catholic spot at the north of Albania, with one +90% catholic district, in the middle of muslim sea.
I think Albania is a fascinating nation, anyway. They have unique roots and history. I don't know much about it, though.

If You think Albania does not deserve it, OK

The story isn't that simple. Albania mostly didn't get conquered by catholics. It remained part of Epiros, Bulgaria for most of its time, though Durres and some other coastal cities indeed were in catholic hands.

When it comes to the children, Turks didn't need that many of them, they weren't, as they show them, little children, but early (but not necessarily) teenagers, and often the families wanted their children to join the janissaries - it was a big chance of career, and the children remembered about their families, villages, etc. Which doesn't mean that it wasn't often a tragedy, that Turks had moral right to do it, that their rule was not harsh to Bulgarians, Serbs etc.

Specifically with Albania & Kosovo they did indeed take young children and raise them as Muslims.

It seems Albania got richer thanks to Bush's visit already. At least one fellow. In other words: Albanians already got a grip.

Sorry for the inconvenience but from my perspective I'd rather have him over seas bother you then here bothering me.

The guy hardly has any public appearances in the US any more because 65%-70% of the population hates him.
