No one, I suspect lazy or stupid on > that list, so why that love for communists ideas? Well, free software is basically a liberal idea. I mean liberal in the European sense, not the US sense where it has typically come to refer to someone who is against individual responsibility, wants all rapists and murderers to go free, and wants to eliminate God and Jesus from the lexicon (this at least as the far-right would define "liberal"). In the European sense I think it has to do with freedom--free markets (thus the hatred for the evil empire), freedom to do what we want with the hardware and software we purchase, freedom by allowing anyone who wants to participate. I'd like to separate forever the words "liberal democrat" and "conservative republican". The democrats have given liberalism a dirty name and whored themselves out and refuse to defend liberalism, trading the possibility of electoral victory for the principles of liberalism. And, I know many a fine republican who I feel are harmed by the label conservative, though it doesn't have quite the damning sense of "liberal". As George H. Bush said of Dukakis with utter disgust--"That guy's a *liberal*! A card-carrying member of the ACLU!" Please, I say this not to incite discussion, I'm just making a statement. t Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

(First of all, he lives in Canada, a country remarkable for its deficiency of Republicans. OTOH, they have a party with the peculiar name of Progressive Conservative. Parse that one.) However, there have been several political flamewars in the past on this list, and one of them got way out of hand. It didn't take too long before a number of users objected. Eventually, calmer heads prevailed, and an OT list was established for that kind of stuff. (Sorry, I don't have the link, but I'm sure that someone will provide it.)

I don't anticipate a flame war Yankl, but I very carefully didn't agree or disagree with the cheap shot at Bush. I just acknowledged that I found the crack itself humorous. My "political conviction or affiliation" is of the same order as my religious beliefs. Non-existant and/or not subject to public discussion. Your preferences are your own business, and you're welcome to them. As are Stephen and T.B.M/JoeHill/Haywire Mac. If I thought any differently I'd be subscribed to the OT list where philosophical debate seems the norm. I still found, from past experience reading their stated thoughts on the subject, the remark humorous; and whether I agree or disagree with the opinion doesn't lessen my respect for them. Or you. I'm fairly certain you aren't alone but this is the wrong forum for that subject.
