On NPR's program the World on Oct 3 there was something said about a guy who said that the black Africans were not responsible for the apartite in South Africa, the minority government was. And the Iraqis are not responsible for the genocide of Sadam Hussein because he was a tyrannical dictator. But he said that Americans are responsible for the actions of George Bush because we have an "open democratic society". I'm trying to find out who was stupid enough to say such a thing (mostly because America is NOT a democratic society (ruled by the people)...it is a republic society (ruled by representatives) The idea that some yahoo is blaming me for what Bush does is just infuriating.
I know NPR will let you listen to the programs but it wont play on my computer (for reasons beyond my understanding) It was broadcast during the listener comments portion...so I'm not sure if it was a listener’s comment or a listener responding to what someone else said.

Can someone listen to the listener comment/questions segments for the show and tell me what they say please?

It was one of the Republican apologists, most likely from the Heritage foundation. Try sending in an email to the show and asking.
I tried to listen to it but the link is messed up. So its not just you. :-)
