    Why aren't they checking on the dead voting in Chicago or the illegals voiting in Southern California?

  3. Re:F.A.C.E. Intel on Pre-Retirement Interview With Intel CEO Barrett · · Score: 1

    Because almost every media outlet in the USA takes money from Intel, at least indirectly. Who do you think funds most of the cost of all those computer ads that have "Intel Inside" and/or that anoying sound in them? That's right, Intel.

    You are wrong. Dupes like this cost /. subscribers which costs them money.

    Google, with its cookie that expires after 2030, isn't a friend. It's a good looking stalker that tries to track everything you do, that is why gmail.com redirs you to gmail.google.com.

    The history of the companies she has been at before HP show that she doesn't know how to run a company. All she knows is how to make her and other execs a lot of money at the expense of everyone else.

    It wasn't an election year then, now it is. The 'regligious' right is treated by the GOP the same way that black people are treated by the Dems, that is they say they will help them while they are running for election then they forget about them till they need votes and money again.

    Alan Keyes: "No, the point of the matter is that marriage, as an institution, involves procreation. It is in principle impossible for homosexuals to procreate. Therefore, they cannot marry. It is a simple logical syllogism, and one can wish all one might, but pigs don't fly and we can't change the course of nature."
    Mike Signorile: "But one or the other in the couple can procreate. The men can donate their sperm, the women can have babies."

    Alan Keyes: "The definition and understanding of marriage is 'the two become one flesh.' In the child, the two transcend their persons and unite together to become a new individual. That can only be done through procreation and conception. It cannot be done by homosexuals."

    Mike Signorile: "But what about a heterosexual couple who cannot bear children and then adopt? They are not becoming as one flesh, they are taking someone else's flesh."

    Alan Keyes: "And they are adopting the paradigm of family life. But the essence of that family life remains procreation. If we embrace homosexuality as a proper basis for marriage, we are saying that it is possible to have a marriage state that in principle excludes procreation and is based simply on the premise of selfish hedonism. This is unacceptable."

    Mike Signorile: "So Mary Cheney is a selfish hedonist, is that it?"

    Alan Keyes: "Of course she is. That goes by definition. Of course she is."

    Mike Signorile: "I don't think Dick Cheney would like to hear that about his daughter."

    Alan Keyes: "He may or may not like to hear the truth, but it can be spoken."

    Alan Keyes: "By definition, a homosexual engages in the exchange of mutual pleasure. I actually object to the notion that we call it sexual relations because it's nothing of the kind.

    Alan Keyes: "It is the mutual pursuit of pleasure through the stimulation of the organs intended for procreation, but it has nothing to do with sexuality because they are of the same sex. And with respect to them, the sexual difference does not exist. They are therefore not having sexual relations."

  17. He isn't all their on Senate Candidate Wants to Ban Polling · · Score: 1

    This is the same man who thinks that the main purpose of marriage is having kids and that the fact that gays can not have kids is a reason to not allow them to marry. Follow this chain of thought out and you will realize that he appears to believe that unless you can have kids you should not be married.

    They make a profit and they support GNOME, that is enought for some of the kids on /. to hate RHAT.
