  3. Re:I'm no Bill friggen Gates here... on ATI Announces 512MB Graphics Card · · Score: 1

    He never said that and has claimed so on several occasions (see '05 winhec keynote video) and no one has ever provided a cite (time, place, witnesses) for him saying it. Of course, don't let facts get in the way of a good troll.

  4. Re:Good, I feel safer now. on Boeing Successfully Tests Anti-Missile Laser · · Score: 1

    Yea, cuz terrorists are the ONLY threat out there, obviously.

  5. Re:Wasn't this done in Reagan's time? on Boeing Successfully Tests Anti-Missile Laser · · Score: 1

    Reagan proposed a missile defense, it was never really funded beyond the research phase I believe. This is real, the pentagon plans to have 7 fully functional 747s with lasers by 2008.

    China's too large for this to work, their missiles can be so far in their interior that the laser would never touch them.

    Uh, huh. That would be why the Quran refers to Jews, Christians and Muslims as all "children of the book."

    He said many parts of Islam feel that way, not that the Quran stated it. Learn the difference.

    Let me clue you into something - the muslim extremists are about as Islamic as the KKK are Christian. Taking what they say as representative of the religion is a great way to delude yourself, and justify all kinds of terrible things.

    Really? So average everyday American Christians dance in the streets of America when thousands of civilian muslems are killed? Maybe you missed the 9/11 celebrations ALL OVER THE MIDDLE EAST, all you had to do was turn on your tv.

    But, let's take the response one step further, you say that modern "Christian" societies have progressed beyond such barbaric reasoning? That would explain this memo from the current administration rationalizing torture in the "war on terror."

    That memo was from one justice department civil servent to another, and president Bush nor anyone in his administration had nothing to do with it, president Bush's response to inquiries about what field personel could do was:

    'Make sure it is lawful. Make sure it meets all of our obligations under the Constitution, U.S. federal statutes and applicable treaties.'

    How you can twist those facts into "the current administration rationalizing torture in the "war on terror"" just boggles my mind.
