When CSC breaks the law, I am critical of them.

LOL. Yeah, rrrrright. Again, you don't mind collecting a paycheck from somebody who's been alleged of wrongdoing. Criticize all you want. As long as nobody halts your income stream, you'll bury your head in the sand.

When MS breaks the law, you change the subject and say that the laws are bad when applied to MS.

Funny, you won't address the sodomy law issue. I'm stunned to find that you don't think that laws become obsolete over time.

MS is not above the law. Anti-trust laws are to protect the capitalist free market, which MS wants to destroy. So I'm sure you don't like the laws that actually try and defend capitalism!

Sherman dates back to 1890. To the math-challenged, that was 112 years ago. People were still riding horses and carriages as primary transportation. The Wright brothers wouldn't fly the first rudimentary aircraft for another 10 years after Sherman was signed. Sherman couldn't have predicted the economy of scale of shipping bits. It is obsolete. The DOJ brought the Sherman suit originally on the issue of Tying. It did not prevail. The appeals court slapped it down to the district level. As far as the other so-called "broken laws" go, not a single consumer was harmed or testified at the trial. But plenty of whiny competitors did. That about summarizes everything that the rational, thinking person needs to know. The rest, as told by you, is a bunch of anti-business, pro-government-intervention hate speech.

Looter corps and their stooges are not free-market friendly. So you'd remove the laws that protect the free market.

Neither are stooges that want to ram Java down peoples' throats over their own objections.

Man, some day you (and James Carville and Paul Begala and Johnny Cochran) and going to wake up and realize who you've been defending.

I've never defended Clinton. Don't even try that sophistry, clown. You're not remotely clever enough.

It never ceases to amaze me to see what some people will do for money. It's amazing that in America there are people who will take money to help a company like MS try and destoy the free market.

I know, I know. I've been wondering when you were going to resign from CSC.

But then again, I suppose that socialist leanings aren't exactly uncommon. As you said, I'm as silly as Ken Starr, another fella who was stupid enough to try and go after a collectivist lawbreaker. No doubt you're happy to be on the side of the collectivists, as long as they keep paying you.

I have to wonder what you're going to do when this thing's all over and you have no one left to whine about. Maybe you and Ken Starr can get together and camp out at your local Catholic rectory to keep track of the sexual antics of the clergy.

Funny, you won't address the sodomy law issue.

Ah, you missed my entire post on the subject? I'd be happy to repeat --

Anti-trust laws like the Sherman Act are necessary to defend the free market against monopolistic control. Anyone violating them is guilty of attacking the free market. The laws are not anachronisms, they are living, vital parts of what is left of our capitalist system. The 'victim' is our capitalist free-market -- and anyone who values that market.

Which apparently doesn't include you.

Sodomy laws are a 'victimless' crime.

No paralell what-so-ever. Apples and chainsaws.
