Yeah, it appears according to the press that Bill Gates is only political when his company is under fire and it gives him benefits.

That reminds me of something I thought was rather interesting. The last time I ran for office, I made Microsoft a major campaign theme. I blasted M$ and Microsoft both on my campaign website, in my statement in the Voters Pamphlet and in the one free televised appearance I was allowed to make.
Of course, NOT ONE local (or national) newspaper mentioned Microsoft in relation to my campaign. But somewhere around the end of theh campaign, I saw an interesting article in a local paper. It said Microsoft executives had decided they were going to get more involved in local politics. Go figure.

I live in Fort Lauderdale. Gus Boulis murder is still unsolved. There was mention of this in the "Scum" Sentinel today. Somebody went medieval on Boulis and I think the feds are shaking some trees looking for leads. Boulis owned Sun Cruz.
Too much of that kind of stuff happens here in 'paradise'.
Two weeks after OJ was arrested, the guy who took the fall for him when OJ was busted for selling coke in college, was found assasinated in Pembroke Pines.

Wow, this sounds pretty deep. Imagine if Abramoff somehow connected Bill Gates to 9/11? But then, Gates is already connected to the Republican Party, which is about the same thing, right?
Kintaro:
Imagine Abramoff connected Bill Gates to being a BUSINESSMAN.
Really, all businessmen should be put up against the wall and killed, not just Bill Gates. Along with lawyers, and USPO workers.

I'm pretty sure they're armed with automatic weap...
Oh, right, PATENT OFFICE not POSTAL SERVICE. :D
Still, they ARE government workers, so what I said still stands.
