only thing Wikipedia policy forbids is to state that America ACTUALLY IS what
you think it is. This is not an opinion board, like Usenet. It's an
encyclopedia. Points of view must be attributed to their adherents. If you can't
think of a famous author or person who agrees with you, just attribute the POV
to "some people".</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=+0></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>While the rest of the
world came to to the conclusion that America is just a jumped up
banana-republic junta run by a bunch of crypto-fascists with a finger glued
permanently to the self-destruct button a long time ago, you're not
allowed to point it out in Wikipedia. How thoroughly refreshing to
be working on such an enlightened project. Dickens' Ministry of Circumlocution
would have been proud of the people who deleted that page.</FONT></DIV>
