  1. Re:Holding Back The Inevitable on China Blocks Typepad, Prompts Weblog Blackout · · Score: 1

    democracy : majority rule with protection of the rights of the minority. If you can define democracy like that you wouldn't have any problems would you ?

  3. Re:Fearless Sun Leader pokes at IBM on McNealy Answers: No Open Source Java · · Score: 1

    IBM already has tons of projects to which it contributes to. http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/views/openso urce/projects.jsp Thats why we like IBM this year/month/week/day. That said I'm not blaming Sun either.

  4. Re:YaST - great for newbs but... on YaST to Become Open Source · · Score: 1

    I think it's high time that the debian developers adopt a program like YaST. It would be beneficial for the users as well as the developers.

  5. Re:Will THIS be the wakeup call to XFree86? on Fedora Prepares For Xorg Instead of XFree86 · · Score: 1

    if debian and mandrake switches to Xorg, the majority of the linux desktops would be using Xorg. now that would be a wakeup call.

  6. Re:SIMS IS NOT A DEMOCRACY on Sims Online Presidential Campaign Shapes Up · · Score: 2, Insightful

    A democracy is majority rule, with protection of minority rights. Freedom of Speech gives the minority the ability to defend themselves.

  13. Re:China vs,. US on China Releases Cyber Dissident · · Score: 1

    I suppose you have never read, anything, from the Amnesty International about China. Thank you being a regular American who is not concerned about protecting freedoms your fore-fathers left you with.

  14. Thank You on China Releases Cyber Dissident · · Score: 1

    Thanks for clearing out the things for the ignoramus general public of the US of A.

  15. Re:It's called compare and contrast (ie, not OT) on China Releases Cyber Dissident · · Score: 1

    warriors, combatants, fighters. Please tell me the difference between these. What makes a fighter illegal? If we call warriors, fighters does that change the way we should treat them. You my friend are looking at a very big grey hole created by the current administration.

    Is there a war in afghanistan? Last I heard there was a new goverment in place, with a new constituition. These people held in the camp are not treated according to any law, not from the country of captivity, nor in the country where they are held at. Holding a prisoner in a military base under the command of US, doesn't mean that they are outside the country.

  16. Re:It's called compare and contrast (ie, not OT) on China Releases Cyber Dissident · · Score: 1

    I would say that it is as bad as it's said. One known prisoner from my country was held in the camp for over one and a half years BECAUSE, in the words of US military, "He showed no remorse for the deaths of thousands on september the 11th". Since when was "not showing remorse" a crime. A crime that makes you eligible to be held in a camp without trial, without bail, and without any tangible evidence of the said crime. Please face the reality that the current administration's handling of these political situations is the worst ever in the history of US of A. That said, the Bill of Rights and the Constituition of US is commendable. Enough to be the next commandmants.
