You are correct, and have proven yourself correct all along, whereas your adversary has proven nothing nor documented nothing, except a faulty dictionary.

Seems to be a trend, even here on FR. People just "say things" and expect no challenges.

The United States of America IS NOT a democracy. Thanks for supporting that with facts. I'm worn out debating these factless wonders...gotta save my strength for 2008 to debate the other side.

No sniping from the bushes. If you want to say something about a Freeper, have the guts to address him directly.

Look, I posted a standard definition of democracy. If you don't like it, look it up in a dictionary of your choice.

Main Entry: de·moc·ra·cy
Pronunciation: di-'mä-kr&-sE
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural -cies
Etymology: Middle French democratie, from Late Latin democratia, from Greek dEmokratia, from dEmos + -kratia -cracy
1 a : government by the people; especially : rule of the majority b : a government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised by them directly or indirectly through a system of representation usually involving periodically held free elections

That's what the USA is, a democracy.
