The caucus can revolt by taking a vote of non-confidence, starting off an election. Chretien is just a smart politician, that's all. Now if our opposition weren't so freaking dumb our government might be held more accountable.
What the hell is wrong with the people of Slashdot. The least they could do is insert a (sic) next to a missplet word to show they didn't edit it. That's what editors do, right?
The origin of the word "robot" is commonly assumed to be from the title of a play from the early 20th century called "Rossum's Universal Robots". It is true that the word robot is derived from slave or labourer.
Remember, the Supreme court is Republican-dominated and may side with the government. They have shown in the past with the DMCA that they are not entirely on the individual's side.
The idea of using proper spelling and grammar is to make the job of reading a post easier. If someone would spare a few seconds to spell-check their post, it would save thousands of people reading the message a moment's pause. It's only being considerate.
So you see, if the spelling and grammar are correct, it collectively saves a great deal of time for the readers.
In conclusion, bad spelling and grammar display nothing but contempt for the reader and their time.
BTW, I think spelling and grammar are important, but I wouldn't kill 6 million Jews over it.
The reason is America doesn't want to have itself overruled by a truly international court. If that were the case, it's own servicemen would be subject to war crimes trials.

BTW, it's "lose" not "loose"
They haven't legalized weed. If I had mod points I'd -1 just for the dumb "Blame Canada" reference.
What the hell, is God telling them to build an ark?
Don't forget to take into account the horrendous inflation of the 1970's and the cumulative inflation since then.
That's one thing that bugs me about old people, their tendency to not take inflation into account.
Utterly fucking lame
-1 tired South Park reference
You should look at it again they spell it "liscence".
Moron.

In that case, your post is offtopic, since it's about the G8 meeting in Alberta dumbass.
I believe the non-canonical books are called the apocrypha.

botulism doesn't sit in the earth for years, bioacculumate in living beings, unlike PCBs.
He owns most of the company, so there's not much call for it. DEKA research is privately owned, but there are investors for Segeway.
I've seen a lot of PlayStation commericals that display the CGI only. MS isn't the only one to do that.
Lawyers for accused terrorists are on the side of the (accused) terrorists. Since that is so, doesn't it make the lawyers "terrorists"?
Dude, I bet you haven't even tried it!

They can strangle people just as well.
It's a little ironic that Bush strips away people's rights in order to protect them.

The key word is "limited" with DRM, I doubt that the files will dutifully unlock themselves after the expriation of the copyright.
You mean, why not lock them all up, like the Japanese-Americans and the German-Americans like during WW2?.
Your logic scares me.
Haven't lost a war?
War of 1812
Korea, at best a draw
Vietnam
After all, %50 does have below-average intelligence.
However, the average itself must be pretty low for this sort of opinion to be this popular.
