well I guess bill gates and steve ballmer were wrong when they called Linux communism. and I guess darl mcbride was wrong when he wrote congress saying linux is a threat to national security. |

We've gone from communists and anti-American to tools of oppression. Hooray! :) |

doggone it, I was happy as a smelly hairy Linux hippie. All these identity changes are messing with my head. |

Chalk it up to all those pinko-commie-conservatives. I'm not even sure who's who anymore. What with all the socio-political "family values" conservatives making passes at their pages - B. Clinton's looking more and more like a conservative these days. I'm sooo confewzed! So next thing you know, Bill Gates will be accusing us of being imperialistic, free-market raiders. |

BillG spouts mass nonsense all the time, so why not. |

I probably shouldn't say this, but as usual, I will anyway. I thought you were a man of the cloth. Aren't you worried about the wrath of Jerry Falwell and James Dobson when you say things like that? Now lxer's going to be boycotted by Focus on the Family listeners and Bill Frist will be convening a conference to condemn lxer as a tool of the devil. (I say this in jest - I once faced impeachment as leader of a student organization because I sat in a voter registration booth that was sponsored by the Democrats.) |

>I once faced impeachment as leader of a student organization because I sat in a voter registration booth that was sponsored by the Democrats That's only because we used to frown on torture and slow death. |

Can I be a Linux-using anarchist instead? Maybe it would finally give anarchism a "good name". |

Bigg, they'll probably seek to defrock me. ;-) On a more serious note, I have more respect for Dobson than the other two - Focus on the Family is a great radio show. I don't know if I would follow him at the political level though. And now, back to our regularly scheduled riotry... BillG (next week): Yeah, that's what they are! They're anarchists! That's the ticket! BillG (following week): Yeah, that's what they are! They're devil-worshipping, child-eating savages! That's the ticket! |
