Orbán says Hungary’s national security threatened by “coup” plot aided by international diplomats, media [56]
September 1st, 2010

It takes one to know one

Former Prime Minister Gyurcsány published a blog post yesterday in which he accused Fidesz and especially Prime Minister Orbán of misleading the country in order to be elected. I can’t decide what’s more notable, the blatant hypocrisy or the sad bid for relevance.

    @Olga
    Unbelievable stupidity is you not seeing the irony and audacity of the son of a brutal, sadistic mass murderer lecturing others on democratic values.
    He was raised, educated, and made wealthy on blood money his monster of a father got for him by torturing and murdering people.

    Zoltan,
    You can’t seriously be claiming that Orban did not mislead the country in order to be elected.
    I find it hard to believe that Orban really thought he would be able to lower taxes after the country narrowly averted.

    “he accused Fidesz and especially Prime Minister Orbán of misleading the country in order to be elected”
    Say it isn’t so!!! Politicians do that? They lie and fake sincerity to get elected? They have hidden agendas?

    Anonymous,
    I never said that Orbán did not mislead the country, only that Gyurcsány is the last person who should be griping about it.
