the basic idea is not some new "Top Secret" project
Hence my wiggling with "more-or-less".
Solomon is spot on:
The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. (Ecclesiastes 1:9)
Your point is an important one.
However, one might also argue that, as long as you're going to get into versioning stuff, Subversion makes a good general-purpose choice. When you want to get into coding projects, Subversion is ready to take the load.
Who wants to learn Yet Another Command Set?
Dude, you're paying for (admittedly impressive) cathedrals and stuff.
They seem somewhat disconnected from the humble carpenter that started it all, but it's fairly easy to research what the buildings are supposed to point towards.

I don't pretend to be a huge Latin scholar. Somebody wrote (in Latin) a correction, but they had whitespace and lower case, so I'm not sure they were saying anything too authentic.
So, you're saying that without this legal extension, the congress is reduced to a binary, yes/no review of executive saber-rattling?
The fundamental point is that the congressional/executive separation of powers bears review, particularly where war is concerned.
People seem to feel that there is too much gunboat diplomacy going on, yet there seems little political will to review that power-management process.
On the contrary, some want US adventurism to pay a visit to Darfur.
Go figure. Someone is making money.
Here's a idea to get rid of the Empire quickly: pass a Constitutional amendment that no military troops can be paid or reimbursed, ever.
While I have no clue concerning this "Empire" of yours, one thing that would put actual teeth in the anti-war movement would be a repeal of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_Powers_Act, such that the US would actually have to declare war to wage it. For those keeping track, WWII saw the last proper declarations of war.
One could take the cynical route, and say that the Congress is as anti-war as it is anti-corruption. A more realistic read might be that the niceties of actual states carrying out "diplomacy by other means" using uniformed organizations along civilized lines is simply OBE.

The little WG11v2 is a happy interface. Figure I'll need to stockpile a couple them critters.
Now, how is it that I'm off the hook for managing any of that bad, bad firmware with this wee beastie?
Ivo or Michael, though I'm nowhere near as cool as you dudes, I'll buy you a beverage if I see you in Ottawa next month.
Dunno if GKH's driver program actually helped in this matter, but the general trend in hardware is positive, and I feel Realtek and Netgear deserve a free shill.
Best,

Yeah, but the power of fear diminishes exponentially over time.
Thus, showing "An Inconvenient Truth" to high-schoolers four or five times makes them indifferent, or worse, nihilistic.
Get the kids some exercise, get them playing some sports, get them into photographing nature. Make the bad things seem boring.
Summary: the positive approach is the better long-term investment, unless you're a shrink or an anti-depressant vendor.
Dingo: You must sue her well, and after you are done with her, you may deal with her as you like... and then... sue me. All: And me. And me too. And me. Dingo: Yes. Yes, you must give us all a good suing.

Can't deny some superficial similarities, but I'm not sure that there is a 1:1 mapping between the colonialism of yore and contemporary US policy.
In particular, your argument needs to at least mention globalization before comparing earlier imperialism to what's going on now.
Record of US attempt to copy this - Korea, Viet Nam, Iraq.
Wow, you blended the Cold War, and two notable hot spots therein, with the GWOT. True, lousy US policy following the USSR's Afghan fandango laid the foundation for al Qaeda, but just putting the three incidents together like that omits substantial context.
The last declared war was WWII.
If there was actual concern in the corridors of power, they'd have scuttled the War Powers act long, long ago.
The phrase "current aberrant Republican regime" indicates that your research into the topic of How Stuff Gets Done may be incomplete.
Consider that the non-Communist world out-sourced regional stability to the US after WWII, and the rest of the world as well after the fall of the USSR.
The US either takes action, or becomes France, Volume Deux.
Anti-climactically, MS kicks it up to eleventy billion+(neener,neener,neener), apparently saving the day for Redmond.
In a shock-and-awe move, Engadget publishes a bogus email that underlying technology, a phalanx of cavemen and geckos, is in visa trouble and will have to lay low in Zambiniland for at least six months.
The resulting price crash effectively wipes out the value of the acquisition, and Redmond is out close to nineteeny billion+(omfg).
And that about wraps up our sports coverage for this evening. Thanks!
This from the country that spends the most per-capita on healthcare in the entire world
When enslaving the masses, it is most pleasant to a) feed them poison, and b) chase the poison with more medication to stabilize them.
Oh, and start with the kids. Pills for the little ones. Mwahahahahaha.
Your use of the word "current" in this context is interesting.
It's all one giant blob of government, with a wee ice-berg tip coming up for public review at election time.
For an amusing take on a government across the pond that reveals why hope for change is rather optimistic, see http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080306/ and the sequel, Yes Prime Minister.
While you'll readily show that your point #2 is indeed true (economies of scale being a no-brainer), think about the tight coupling with your government, and both the explicit and implicit loss of personal sovereignty involved. Hence the stiff resistance to the idea, especially at the federal level, where too much power is concentrated in the hands of the few, which point I think you were making in #1.
Believe any negative report about the US government
Understand that no good whatsoever can come of US involvement in the Middle East
but they still want us to somehow vote for candidates that promise extend government meddling in areas such as retirement and health care.
Hm. Not as flexible with these mental gymnastics as I used to be. Request additional kool-aid here.

Solomon is spot on:
Props to MS for coming up with a more-or-less unprecedented product. ;)
The emacs users will quickly be shaking from key withdrawal, of course.
