Maybe in your circles, but I’m not the only poster here that’s referred to you as “antiRepublican”.

And apparently that of ultra-conservative Michael Savage, from your article.

but I’m not the only poster here that’s referred to you as “antiRepublican”

It is a sign of people who put loyalty to the Republican Party above loyalty to the United States. The Party must not be criticized, even when it is acting contrary to the interests of the country. The inspiration for taking my name came from George Washington, who warned us of party loyalist attitudes such as yours.

Now run along and do the bidding of your Microsoft and Republican masters, and let the free-thinking people here loyal to the United States engage in adult discussion.

loyalty to the United States

Hysterical, considering your loyalties are almost exclusively behind foreign products like Linux instead, just as we see here of course. Your defenses of criminal Russian hackers such as when you tried every excuse you could possibly think of, including the "180 day rule for prosecution" on their behalf LOL, ultimately even trying to claim the US DoD used software written by Russian hackers, which you finally admitted months later was a lie. Claims that Japanese cars are more American than American cars, admitting you'd prefer if electronic devices such as Apple's iPod were made by Sony, etc.

The list goes on of course, these are just a few perfect examples of you defending foreign products/foreigners/communists/socialists/criminals over Americans, and why we consistently disagree. But while you're sulking lately I'm proud to report most Americans are wising up to the foreign junk flooding our markets, including Linux, the new press reports regarding server sales today didn't even break out operating systems, Linux growth must be tanking worse than it already was, it had already fallen below Windows growth last we heard, and the internationalists at IBM so desperate they're going to start supporting Sun Solaris LOL.

They're desperately running interviews of Torvalds on that leftist site Slashdot almost every day now, another one today of course. But now that more Americans have caught on to what your "copyleft" plan is, and how it damages traditional US "copyright", they can run all the interviews they want but even they aren't getting many comments now LOL. Just a few tired old double talkers like yourself, who aren't fooling hardly anyone anymore, American products rule the software world and you'll just have to learn to cope somehow, you should go over to slashdot full time they obviously need a few posters now LOL
