    Vanhanen = "the tap", the faucet" in Danish. Very old joke here, I thought it might be the same in Norwegian.

    He could have a deputy named Hygieinen..

      THis is why you people have no clue.

      I can't find the news from this important day from CNN front page, nowhere. I go to World section. Still.. nowhere.

      I go to Politics section.,. nowhere. I compare the news of these all, I mean maybe something REALLY important happened today. Well nothing happened.

      I had to go to World->Europe to find it. Drudgereport is too climaxed to report about it at all I guess.

      Even CNN gets the name wrong. It's not Niinisto, it's Niinistö.

      But who gives a **** anyway, right?

          Pekka,
          In European countries the President often doesn''t have much more real power than e.g. the Queen of Denmark. Can you name the President of Iceland? Or even Germany? Maybe that's why they don't care so much.
          Well the Finnish pres does actually have a little bit of power (foreign policy etc?), so maybe this is a stupid point.

            maybe it's the freaking leader of Finland?

            It's super basic information. OK?

            And I do know the president of Germany. It's Khöler. Or something like that. Kholer?

            I don't know who the president of Iceland is.

            How is that relevant that it's not even important news for a day?

            Can you give me a single reason to that?

              I think it's due to Finland's legendary skills in the art of not being noticed by anybody other than the Finns.

              And Russian fighter pilots.

                they did report it, didn't they?
                I think it's important news, but I can undestand why an American website doesn't think it's interesting enough to put on the front page.
                besides, she's not re-elected yet

                  I think it's because the world has a nasty perception of Finns as being Albino reindeer-****ers with impossibly long last names that prevents the world from reporting on the race.
