The louder and more often a politician proclaims some great quality, the less true it is.

America, with it's voting system designed by landowners to mathematically create a power duopoly, is at best straddling the boundary between Democracy and Dictatorship, which is why you end up with situations like this, were all there is two anti-choices ("vote me ´cause I ain't him"), somewhat better than what's going on in Russia but far from good enough.

All that harping about Greatest Democracy In The World ^TM^ is pure compensation.

They thought, "We don't want tyranny if the majority!"

But then we ended up with tyranny of the minority, and that's worse!
