Democracy?

In Ukraine, when politicians play dirty pool, the people turn out by the thousands, shut down the whole country and don't stop until something is done about it. In the US, things are different. When politicians lie and cheat, we re-elect them and put them on ethics committees. I guess this is the difference between a real Democracy, and those backward half socialist Ukrainians.. where do they get off not agreeing with the mandate of their leaders anyway??
(Apparently this software developer named Curtis has recently come forward with a claim that Tom Feeney a congressman from Florida, and yeah, you guessed it, a Republican think family values, hired a software company to write vote-rigging software with the intent of skewing votes in various Democratic precincts in Florida and beyond. Hoorah...)
