  1. Re:democrat != left on From Apple To Xbox, Tech Companies Lean Left · · Score: 1

    You can not be pro business interests AND pro labor.

    Sure you can! Being "pro business" doesn't mean you want to dump labour rights, and being pro labour rights doesn't mean you have to be anti business. It doesn't matter if you want to dump labour rights or if you're being anti business - you're being irresponsible no matter which way you look at it. A healthy country have strong labour rights, and government that is working together with the private business interests as well. Things does not have to be black and white, even though it seems that most Americans thinks there are only two options.

    If you read the bible, Jesus points out that business and religion shouldn't be mixed, so the people running bible.com are just being proper Christians!

    I think that really depends on your point of view and your ability to recognize that you are biased in one direction or the other.

    You mean like science vs. religion?

    The deposit is still on a bank account somewhere within Virgin. It won't be used until there's an actual ride! No deposits are lost in case of failure. No need to worry ;)

    Hey! We agree on something. So tell me, why are still railing on Bush and not saying a word about the 4x increase in deficit spending AND NASA cuts?

    Because the increased deficit is being used to fix the wrongs so that the country can get back on track and in the end reduce the deficit. Before you criticise other people, take a look at yourself!

    This allowed us to expand each other's exposure to our favorites, while still the same things.

    Whatever she promised you when she told you to write that, it's not worth it!

    Seriously - people need time apart to appreciate each other. Being too similar might seem cute in the beginning, but it's not - at least not for the rest of us that has to watch!

    A dual core with 2GB I consider to be the minimum sort of system you should have these days for desktop usage.

    I bought my current desktop to play Civ IV. Are you telling me I have to buy another one, even though it still works perfectly as a desktop?
