Christopher, what insight do you have that Vertigo was having a go at
Americans? Why, for instance, did you not ask him to refrain from
posting anti-power-elite vitriol?

Hmm. It would seem to me that some would consider even
the rather bland term "alleged" as biased. Maybe a
'less biased way' to put these might be:
* President Bush, true patriot and a national
treasure.
* The CIA, according to nutcase conspiracy theorists,
sold some contraband in Guatemala to help fund special
covert operations against the communist threat.
See, now isnt that so much better?
