I was watching that last night.  It was a fairly impressive display of unrest, especially when they torched the state TV offices (which I find funny since it is referred to as MTV).  Hopefully this will cause the government to open its books for review by the EU.

I thought accountabioity to the people was more important than accountability to a bunch of alienated bureocrats.

It is, yet Hungary is now part of the EU, and as such, they must meet certain economic conditions.  Their books should be opened to the union.

Why is the first thing you mention the EU then? It shows what your priorities are.

*sigh*  No, it doesn't.  Can't I make a statement without people putting words in my mouth?  Really.
