    Here is my issue with this argument, the auto update sevice pack thing works great *on a desktop*, and if MS was not trying to convince people to use at as a server in complex systems I would say 'Ya the patch was there what else do you want'.

    Microsoft is trying to sell itself as a primary business server for things like databases, Terminal servers, DNS, Storage Servers, Webservers, Application Servers, Backupservers, and many more. With this in mind how much time does is take to test and promote a Microsoft patch in an enterprise environment?

    Worst Crime Rate: Well we could make drugs and prostitution legal, as many Europian nations do and thigs will even out. The USA has a high murder rate but a much lower property crime rate than enropian nations Democracy: Yea because lord knows france and England have a long history of poor minorities running the nation. Consumer: Yes but despite recent declines in industry we are still the worlds largest producer so it kind works out.

We know that free speech means free speech of stupid people and hateful people as well as greenpeace.

    1) Yes 200 years ago we Franklin had to practically rape the french for money (who only did it to get back at england). Franklin took several years to get anything but empty promises from the french.

    2) I think saving France from Germany twice makes that whole thing a wash (as close to a wash as most French get at any rate)

    3) Please tell me of one instance when a person was throuwn out of the emergency ward in the USA when their life was in danger? The fact is a hospital cant turn someone away for emergency procedures. Now if you want to get into the chemo, radiation, procedures we can talk about how you do need insurance in america. But in nations like Canada and France if youre old there is no hope you get a cancerous organ removed before they even try to treat you.

    4) I do make good money, and someday I may lose my job and be in the street whats your point? I give about 7k a year to charity (about 10% of my income) on top of the 35% in takes I pay so I do more than my part.

    Um those who live in glass houses should not throw bongs. Libertarian is not a bastardization of Liberal It is a statement of one being for Liberty. Now they tend to go a little too far for me personally but I would say if The founding fathers were here today they would be far more Libertarian than they would be Liberal.

    Liberals today are for restricting private gun ownership, the 2nd amendment shows if nothing else the founding fathers were not 'anti' gun and this was a time when a person could afford own better arms than the government.

    Liberals today are for restricting free speech, under the idea of political correctness Liberalisms ugly offspring people; have to watch what they say or do at a university for fear of getting kicked out. Don't believe me? try to hang a confederate flag in you Dorm window.

    Liberals today are for a larger federal government, with expanding social programs and taking more money to Washington that is needed they force states to adopt a drinking age of 21 by threatening federal road dollars, in MN they threatened to take away welfare assistance to the state unless people who get a fishing license gave up the SS#?

    And when will people realize that 'liberal' is a changing term. Liberals in Russia are the one pushing away from socialism not towards, and in this nation its the other way around.

    In America *TODAY*: Liberals want to socialize everything this IMHO is a terrible idea. Liberals also are pushing PC garbage like They also tend to be mush more UN focused (again I am not too fond of the UN telling the US what to do) and by their willingness to vote 'Green' which is an international party that does not put US interest first.

    In America *TODAY*: Conservatives want to reduce the federal government bleed into states rights (the main difference between Libs and Cons is the 2nd and 10th). Conservatives today more line up with the founding fathers than Liberals do otherwise socialized healthcare, and federal school programs would bu in the constitution.

    The most dangerous group in America is the Populist this is a group that says what 70% and above want to hear Bill Clinton and GW are both Populist. They are dangerous because they have no fixed set of values just what makes them feel nice to say.

    Right now DC is run by populist from both parties and that is what's scary. Conservatives did not want homeland security it violates the 10th in so many ways and liberal did not want to vote to give bush war powers (which almost all D's did).

    Me I left the Republican party after I saw it would never go back to respecting conservatives (we are treated like the Democrats treat minorities 'come vote for us and we will throw you crumbs') and am joining the Constitutionalist.
