    My theory is that the unprofessionalism is intentional, an attempt to make the world of linux look unprofessional. I base this on the anti-linux bias of many of the articles.

    1) Put all the friendly Iraqis on boats in the Persian Gulf.
    2) With either nukes or conventional weapons, flatten the country, killing all the insurgents and terrorists.
    3) Sink all the boats.

    I'll leave 4) Profit!!! as an exercise for the management of Halliburton.

    Yeah, but if we mobilized for war after 9/11, we wouldn't have gotten our sweet tax cut. Did you just say "deficit"? Nanananananana-I'm-not-listening-nananananananana.

    These are estimated deaths since Bush declared victory. Whatever you think of the war, the deaths are a result of the way Bush wages PEACE.

    So if you are going to quote the Bible to back up your arguments, you're also going to have to confront the fact that governments were established by God to establish order and peace, by force if necessary.

    So, you're saying that by attacking Iraq and Iraq's Baathist government, George Bush rebelled against God? Does that mean Bush will go to hell?

    I have no idea how they could avoid considering the consequences the day they dropped the first bomb.

    Here's a pretty good article about the neocon plan for Iraq, and what went wrong. Baghdad Year Zero.

    When the only tool in your tool bag is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. When you're a neocon, the whole world looks like a bunch of nails.

    I was just jumping a step from bio keys (thumbprints, retinal scans, drops of blood) to the Next Big Thing(TM). Sorry for the confusion. Many teachers harassed me for not showing my work, to little avail.

    Seriously (or semi-seriously), having your computer(s) recognize your surgically implanted RFID tag isn't that big a leap from what you're talking about. I'm sure it's not a path that either you or I want to tread, but it is a possibility.

    With that in mind, when the SS comes to your door, do not make any sudden movements; do not look them in the eye; and follow their directions quickly and without protest.

    I actually had a nightmare about this the night before the Arizona debate. In my dream, an explosion at ASU killed both the president and Kerry. Upon hearing the shocking news, Cheney keeled over, dead of a stroke.

    Next thing, Delay pushes Hastert aside, and declares himself President. His first act his to declare an emergency and martial law. His second was to have Ashcroft arrest congress.

    Thankfully, I woke up about then.

    That doesn't sound statistically possible.

    There are a limited number of Secret Service agents.

    It takes time to visit each person and nothing actually bad happens to that person except some fame for being oppressed by the government.
