Isn't it so much fun when other countries have elections? Case in point: tiny, uptight island state Singapore had elections about a week ago and now founding father Lee Quan Yew is stepping down as Senior Mentor Figure or whatever he is following his party's worst election result since 1965.
OK... so stay with me here: worst election result since 1965. Just what kind of a drubbing do you think that involves? Seriously- that sounds like a political jackhammer to the colon, right? A really bad visit to the political proctologist?
Well it turns out that the ruling People's Action Party saw their share of the vote drop to a staggeringly low... 60%. Seriously. And the opposition Worker's Party reached an all time high in representation in Singapore's parliament after it managed to win... 6 seats.
If that's a crappy election result, I really, really, really hope I'm around to see the Worker's Party take power. That will be AWESOME. I think heads will literally explode...
