For a while Jimbo was a little more hands off in imposing his right-wing, conservative political agenda on Wikipedia. He would do things like appoint fanatical right wing POV-pushers like JayJG and Fred Bauder to ArbCom, despite other, more balanced people scoring much higher in the ArbCom elections. He would game things so that the high command of Wikipedia would be slavish lackies of his like Raul654, or right wing nutjobs like JayJG and Fred Bauder.

Apparently Wikipedia is becoming too big, or he just hasn't been able to enable the structures to have Wikipedia fully embrace his political tastes. Jimbo is now railing on the Hugo Ch%C3%A1vez talk page that the supposed crimes and mismanagement of Ch%C3%A1vez are not being covered enough.

Of course, two years ago in Honduras, the US-funded military threw out the democratically elected president, shut down newspapers, and during a subsequent "election" associated parties (or perhaps the military itself) killed off a few of the candidates, people who protested against the overthrow of democracy and the institution of dictatorship etc. Studies show more than 2 out of 5 people are in extreme poverty there, a number which has been increasing. Jimbo isn't interested in this though, he's concerned that there was no mention that there was no mention that Venezuela had something of a sugar shortage two years after the failure of a US-funded coup.

Jimbo's political bias out in the open again. My attitude toward the solution has been around for a long time - an alternative to Wikipedia.
