Velcroman1 writes: Our government is in a dysfunctional state. It is also illiterate when it comes to technology. Technology is not a tool that should be used for a government to invade our privacy. Technology should not be the scapegoat when we fail to protect our digital assets and tools of commerce. These are matters of priorities." So says John McAfee, offering up a brief explanation into why he's running for president. As noted earlier on slashdot, McAfee has filed paperwork already (PDF) to found a new party.

    So, what exactly was being lied about? There were WMD found in Iraq, so it couldn't be that, maybe that Saddam wasn't willing to use them?

    Naa, couldn't be that. So, please explain yourself.
