I thought "religion" was the bigger culprit...and covered in a general sense.

they could get some instruments, form a band and call themselves "They Might Be Tyrants". :D
OK...it sounded better in my head.

They Might Be Tyrants. I love that band.
I think the question is: tyrants for what purpose? To paint my house? Hitler. To teach me to swim? Mao. To give me tips on mustache grooming? Pinochet. Equestrian lessons? Catherine the Great.
To paint my house? Hitler.As long as you want your house to be white, sure.

You're right x, but I was thinking I'd have Idi Amin paint the trim. Maybe not on the same day.

The FOX network. At least they entertain you while they help keep the people down.
I don't see my wife's name on that list.
My favorite tyrant would be Idi Amin Dada

Thank you.
After thinking about it, religion really shouldn't qualify as a "tyrant," per se. So due to it being unofficially disqualified from the list, I will be forced to change my vote* to ...
(I'm ot changing my view about religion, just my vote due to a technicality)

KT, you forgot about Chavez. Tyrant in the making. He was just 2% away from achieving full Tyrant status.
The great Khan. He founded the biggest empire ever - it was still growing under his grandson. The others tyranny was short lived.
Microshaft is my least favourite tyrant though. Poorly written bloatware that it is.:mad:

Behold 'tis I the commander
Whose grip controls you all
Resist me not, surrender
I'll no compassion call
(Tyrant) Capture of humanity
(Tyrant) Conqueror of all
(Tyrant) Hideous destructor
(Tyrant) Every man shall fall
Your very lives are held within my fingers
I snap them and you cower down in fear
You spineless things who belly down to slither
To the end of the world you follow to be near
(Tyrant) Capture of humanity
(Tyrant) Conqueror of all
(Tyrant) Hideous destructor
(Tyrant) Every man shall fall
Mourn for us oppressed in fear
Chained and shackled we are bound
Freedom choked in dread we live
Since Tyrant was enthroned
I listen not to sympathy
Whilst ruler of this land
Withdraw your feeble aches and moans
Or suffer smite from this my hand
(Tyrant) Capture of humanity
(Tyrant) Conqueror of all
(Tyrant) Hideous destructor
(Tyrant) Every man shall fall
Mourn for us oppressed in fear
Chained and shackled we are bound
Freedom choked in dread we live
Since Tyrant was enthroned
My legions faithful unto death
I'll summon to my court
And as you perish each of you
Shall scream as you are sought
(Tyrant) Capture of humanity
(Tyrant) Conqueror of all
(Tyrant) Hideous destructor
(Tyrant) Every man shall fall

See the linky in my "+1" reply. ;)
Religion - killed more people, caused more chaos, spread more disease, destroyed more cultures and started more wars than anyone/anything else I can think of - all for a bunch of myths, legends, stories and "perceived" beliefs.
