Yah, no choice. We gotta nuke Microsoft. The freedom of the entire world is at stake here. This has to be the most important issue ever in the history of mankind. It requires endless debate, mega-messages, and even more.

If only we could destroy them today, the world would be just a paradise tomorrow. Thank god for the justice system. There are lawyers out there who need new jags and government employees who need to justify their jobs. There cannot be one more single important issue than this to spend taxpayer money on. And will they ever spend (hey IBM remember, 10 years for DOJ to withdraw).

If there has ever been a case of 'Ignore the man behind the curtain' this is it. Thank god the average man does not understand the complicated aerospace mergers that have gone on. The little people should dwell only on little things like which browser can they can have.

I look forward to their demise. They deserve it. Forget violence in the schools. This is way more important and needs the tax dollar spent here.

Boycott Microsoft! It will change your life. No kidding.
