    It may be just me but I think that Redhat has totally lost the plot since they stopped producing a desktop distribution.

    No, It's not just you, but you are still wrong non the less. Ever tried putting "red hat desktop" in google search? I found the first 20 or so results interesting, especially the 1st one. "http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/desktop/" I understand there is a FUD war going on and all but sheesh.

    That means nothing. The draft bill was killed 402 to 2 by congress and the two voting for it were democrats, and the ones who made it were democrats. It was not ment to be serious it is just a fear tactic so we could run around saying "the draft is coming if you elect bush!" The ones who pay attention, and don't just watch MTV for our political news already know this.

    Quit your fear mongering, you sound retarded. Bush is bringing back the draft too right? Maybe you should have been around to see the real Hitler. Nice to see you guys get a good education over there where you live.

    Selinux is already intergrated into Fedora Core 3, it has a "targeted" policy and protects certain daemons like apache, nfs, etc. It's not right now being used as a complete solution. Still quite good though.

    These figures are inaccurate. They don't count people who're no longer collecting unemployment and have simply given up.

    No the Figure is not inaccurate, they are correct.
    The people who want to die, are going to die. They have given up and want me to take care of them, I do not care about these people. I am worried about the people TRYING to find work.

    For the first time in my life, within 4 weeks of one another, my sister lost her job, my friend lost his job, and his wife lost her job. These are NOT good times...although Bush would have us believe otherwise.

    And you'd have us believe everyone we know is out of work. 5.4 are the latest numbers, the lowest since Oct 2001. sorry

  12. Re:low unemployment compared to europe on The Jobs Crunch · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    First of all I am pretty sure that a person without a job in Europe is much better off then a person without a job in the US.

    Maybe, but that is still one guy who might be workin g in the U.S. He did say 9.7% right? And since you used the word "Europe" unemployment can be MUCH higher than that, double digets. Europe's average was 11.3% wonder what they say to our 5.4 or 5.5 %?

    Finally I really don't care how much worse Europe is. Do you? Does it really help somebody who lost a job to say to them "well other people have it worse then you".
    I Kinda care when people start trying to make our country use thier system (socialized everything). I'd like to point out everything is a trade off.

  13. Re:And you believe them? on Submit and Moderate Questions for Bush and Kerry · · Score: 1

    I mostly agree but you can make anyone look bad if you want to. I think the agreement is to be civil about things. You can get your point across by saying "sir I question why you did this.." instead of "you're some kind of moron this will never work". American press can make a snow ball out of an Ice cube, look what they do with his pronouncing of nuclear. It's one word and everyone says it makes him unfit for president and have been talking about it for what, over a year? Anything a touch off from perfection from a president the other party will beat into the ground until they have you believing FUD.

    Bill O'reilly has a half hour interview with the president airing Monday, No matter how much many of you hate Bill he does infact throw questions in that are made to give uncanned responses, and doesn't let people get away with stump speeches. I'm guessing the President gets alittle slack though, nobody badgers a president face to face in an interview.

    1) Use of Military Power: Both approve of foreign intervention, but one party prefers to get the tacit approval of the international community before invading.

    I suppose the 6 months spent lobbying those 3 countries to get on board isn't enough for you to say "prefers approval". Oh well maybe next time the U.N. Won't take payoffs.
    Agree with the rest of your points though.

  16. Re:Information please! on Fedora Project Considering "Stateless Linux" · · Score: 1

    If there was proof don't you think there would have been a story about it? Red Hat now makes money, this makes them a hated company by many GNU/Linux users. While they cry about the evils of red hat, they are simotaniously running on an OS with like 20,000 Red Hat patches. pay them no attention.

    I assume you are referring to the Iraqi population's response after we invaded their country and sent it back to the stone age.

    Actually no, I had after the WTC buildings on my mind when making that comment, I remember seeing a crowd on TV just going crazy (litterally). Maybe you're a muslim and take offense to my comments, I know not all Muslims are bad or even the religeon. But in that part of the world religion is still an effective method of controling minds to carry out killing (much like christianity did when the population was ignorant)

    I can guarantee you that if the US was reduced to razed earth and those same militant minorities managed to strike back in some way there would be a percentage of the population who would indeed be dancing in the streets.

    I would rather not speculate on that, I'll just comment on the now; We don't dance in the street at the news of thousands of innocent people dying, They do.

    I didn't bring up Iraq, It's not my favorite of subjects. a big frickin mess. I will say that Iraqi's might not like us in their country, may hold some sceptisizm or whatever but I doubt they _hate_ us. After all we never attacked the people. The iraqi's are being killed by car bombs 10 here 15 there, 25 sometimes by the arab forigners though. I understand watching us closely but I think they can see who the real threat is between us and the terrorists I just wish they weren't scared to say it like the rest of the world.

  20. Re:So true on The Dangers of One Party Rule · · Score: 1

    So, by that logic, if I (an American citizen) went to another country and killed somebody, people in that country should assume that all Americans are murderers?

    One big difference.. We wouldn't have a parade in the streets, burn that country's flag, scream for blood like other country's do when these "seperatists" as someone put it attack us. How many top muslim leaders are saying "stop please" how many are condeming this behaviour?
    Which brings me back to my point, when a KKK member kills a black guy in the name of christianity. Christians say "hey, he's not like us, fry him". They did that with the Oaklahoma bombings aswell, they do that with abortion clinics. Do you get the point or shall I continue with examples?

    Maybe he wouldn't take August off every year to get away from his arduous summer vacation schedule. Maybe in August he'd read Presidential Daily Briefings that outline Bin Laden's commitment to attack the united states.

    Are we talking about the same John Kerry who has been absent from 76% of the Senate Intelligence Committee's public hearings since he's been there? including all of them in the year following the first World Trade Center attack. Hell, kerry was windsurfing during the RNC. This is the guy you're talking about who is so much better about vacationing when we have security issues?
