    So only black folks have 20" rims, dark tint, or loud stereos? I think you're Driving While Bigoted.

    You mean like when France invaded the Ivory Coast?

    There was never a formal declaration of war against Iraq(or Afghanistan), and it was therefore illegal for the Executive branch of government to usurp this power.
    I'm sorry that Dick Cheney didn't send you a personal memo, but Congress voted on both of these and approved both the wars and the funding! Please get a clue!

    That definition of misdeameanor is the one prevelant in 1787 and the one intended by the Founders.
    I'm glad you agree. I'm tired to explaining to people what the word "militia", found in the second amendement, means in its historical context. The left wing treats the Constitution as a "living document", which means that they want judges who interpret it at whim rather than allowing the changes to be made in the legislative branch, where it is supposed to happen.

    The question had no bearing whatsoever on his ability to do his job as president. In fact, the vast majority of people who complain about Clinton are opposed to him not because of his activities, but because they think he's a bad person. And not just because he lied, but because of his sexual proclivities!
    He could have taken the high road and refused to answer, if the question was irrelevant. No one is going to charge the President with contempt of court, especially if 5th amendment rights are in question. But he chose to lie instead. That's perjury. Period.

    Yes. I am surprised that we are investigating a 100% legal firing of attorneys. President Clinton fired ALL of them when he came into office. Aren't any of you disgusted by the waste of resources on a non-issue?

    When Wing Commander was released in 1990, the 386 was the current CPU and the 486 had just been released. The 286 was old hat.

    Are you kidding? Apple thought users only needed two colors and one mouse button. The only similarities between an Amiga and a Mac were the CPU.

    Anyone could use technology for evil. Again, why focus on Christians? The only Christian theocracy on earth is the Vatican-- although I should note that Denmark and (arguably) the UK have state churches that would never fly under the US Constitution.

    That's funny, because from what the GP poster said I couldn't extrapolate all that information. From the few lines he wrote, all I see is a nihilist. I have no idea what his moral code is. It could be "do what you will, an it harm none", it could be Hammurabi's code, it could be Osama bin Laden's code. Humanists like to pretend that they are taking the simple, enlightened route, but it's not so simple as that.

    I know the Superhacker exists... because he's me. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go back to my 3D virtual reality interface, hop on my lightcycle, and infect the alien mainframe with the Michaelangelo virus. If you need me, I'm at IP address 24.75.345.200.
