What pathetic sophomoric whiners! The democrats are indeed on the path of self destruction. They don't need anybody's help.

Oh, man, Slashdot. "Never will you find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy."

That site is what you get when you combine rabid liberalism with fanboy fanaticism.

Netscape, which corrected the situation when it was discovered, has released a statement apologizing for the "inappropriate and disparaging terms" that were used in the image tags -- and saying that the company has terminated the employee.

Any chance of publicizing this employee's name and address? A healthy dose of public exposure and shame for the little jerk might do it some good.

They'll learn....people are watching them now.

They are slow learners, even Rathergate hasn't taught them that WE are watching.

Purges of the leftists are in order everywhere when they do blatant acts such as this.

Free Republic does another service for the good of America.

Warning to all corporations who answer to the SEC, this behavior will not be tolerated. Stock owners do not want precious corporate resources to be use to savage President Bush.

The left likes to think of themselves as "intellectual." I tend to think of them as "juvenile."

the employee got sacked, eh?

Yes, but I think we still need to sack those responsible for sacking those responsible, just for good measure.

my wife reported that on the local news yesterday evening, there was a live report about the bank robbers in Dallas. As the talking head described the BOLO for "two bank robbers," two pics of Bush flashed up on the screen.

Maybe he can get a job with the Kerry Administration...

News anchor was saying, "Police are looking for two bank robbers who blahblahblah..." As she was saying that, along with a live shot of one of the banks, two pictures of Bush were flashed on the screen. I assume it was some newsroom hack's attempt at a joke.
