I can't pretend to know the terms of the agreement, but you are correct - it was not sold, it was given. That part of the article was completely fabricated.
You're right. And I'm sure that we could come up with an endless stream of reasons that don't make sense to a normal person. Here's one more:
"I'm voting for McCain because whether it's my opinion or that of an expert elitist, he does not discriminate in that neither of our opinions matter to him. The only thing that matters is whatever the extreme party agenda is and I'm fine with someone else telling me what to do. I don't like the Government controlling me, unless of course I freely give up my control...then, it's okay, " he said with sarcasm.
Exactly - I don't believe this for a second. China is pissed that we've been getting on their case for the led in children's toys and the view that we're not giving them the respect they feel they deserve with the whole Olympic thing. At the same time, they own a lot of our national dept, and with a president like Bush I would not be surprised if they think of us as dumb Americans who will just believe what we're told by the media....but that's not true, right?
True Conservatism is nearly gone. McCain has compromised his position of integrity with both parties to the point where no one can really trust him. The only reason he will get votes is because he's relying on:
1) ignorance
2) others that are willing to compromise their own integrity to vote with their party no matter what
3) the rare occasion that someone, even well-informed of his consistent erroneous statements and fear-mongering mentality, likes or agrees with McCain
I really like the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, but that family on wife swap is insane! I'd like to know what software company that guy worked for prior to developing his "Pirattitude"!
I concur. The flaws are openly known and will be solved openly. And with increasing open source consideration and adoption and companies like McAfee not offering any Linux OS security solutions, we can move this in a positive direction.

I find that most of the news on Slashdot comes from the commentary, don't you?

I concede your point on McCain's record of compromise...and your Leiberman point. Both of them give me the willies.

Didn't you hear? Wii suck.
Yep - definitely fluff. I think I got a worm infection by just reading this one. Shall we agree to stop commenting at 70 comments?
