Sep. 4th, 2015 11:53 amIs it just me, or do we have a particularly awful crop of world leaders right now? I mean, as near as I can tell, if I can recognize their name, I don't like them. Cameron is meh, Netanyahu kinda needs to shut up already (I'm starting to get hivey every time I see his name in print, which is often), Merkel constantly seems to me to be making the situation (whatever situation) worse, not a fan of Modi, and the less said about Erdogan, the better. (And let's not mention Putin, shall we? Damn, too late, already did.)
And those are just the ones that readily spring to mind. I am not a happy world citizen right now.
