BERLIN -- Alexander Lukashenko, the authoritarian president of Belarus, on Sunday criticized EU politicians who have threatened him with sanctions and in an apparent riposte to the German foreign minister's branding him "Europe's last dictator," said: "Better to be a dictator than gay."
[B]Guido Westerwelle is Germany's first openly gay minister.[/B]
European Union leaders at a summit in Brussels on Friday called for new measures to pressure the Belarus president over alleged human rights abuses.
Lukashenko has led Belarus since 1994, retaining Soviet-style controls over the economy and cracking down on opposition and independent media.
Lukashenko said Belarus would give a strong reaction to any sanctions, according to local news agency Belta.
"This is absolute hysteria," Belta reported him as saying. "And as you can see, at the forefront there are two types of politicians ... one lives in Warsaw, another in Berlin."
[B]"Whoever was shouting about dictatorship there ... when I heard that, I thought: it's better to be a dictator than gay."[/B][/quote]
He's just shy, that's all. He'll come out of the closet soon enough.
He's over 50, approaching 60.
I have a feeling these 2 are related.
Wow that is childish.

Politics would be a lot more interesting if they made jokes about eachother's mothers.

Dick jokes up the ass!
I like how he uses it as an insult, as if gay people took offense to being gay.
He kinda looks like a child molester though.

Reminds me of Steve Martin in the Pink Panther (2006)

Warsaw? What the hell? What does Poland have to do with all that?

Nazi stab, maybe?
Well isn't he right? Not that there's anything wrong with being gay but I bet being in total control of an entire country sure as hell beats that.
Seems like a silly comparison to me

I'd gladly be a benevolent dictator, but I would never willingly commit human rights abuses ever, even if someone gave me money to do it.
Not only is it disgusting to do so, you also lose respect from your citizens and from the international community, and sooner or later you will get overthrown in a revolution if you don't die before that happens.
When did Rick Santorum become President of Belarus?
"I'm a dictator?! Yeah well.. your gey"
He looks like doctor Phil.
And I would like to see more mother jokes in politics. Right now we just have things that Rick Santorum says, and those will eventually run out... Maybe not anytime soon though.

I have a feeling this is what every dictator is thinking before they gain control.
...Well, he's probably right. Being a dictator is probably fucking fantastic.

I'd imagine it's quite miserable. Sure you'd have a lot of material wealth and comfort but that's not all there is to life. In which case a happy gay couple probably has it better.

Nothing says happiness like the suffering of millions of disenfranchised people.

Better a gay dictator than fucking stupid. Take fucking that President!
