'In 1994, a Microsoft employee e-mailed company chairman Bill Gates to tell him about her husband's campaign for the Washington state legislature. Stu Jacobson is a liberal Democrat, wrote wife Sandra. He favors abortion rights, wants stricter gun control, and supports the state's 1993 health-reform law (a mini version of ClintonCare). "It sounds like we agree on many things," replied Gates. "I am willing to endorse Stu." '

Bottom line, William H. Gates III is a left-wing socialist thug who has hypocritically exploited the capitalist system while refusing to embrace free market capitalist priniciples.

He is only a small push from becoming just like George Soros.

"Personal insults get us nowhere around here"

Look who's talking.

Remember your first post to me?
I'll just quote it back to you:
"Are you always like this, or is it PMS?
Take a midol and settle down, sister"

If that is not an insult what is?

Calling you a moron will be an insult to morons.
You still need to grow up a few more years, then maybe you can be Mr. Moron. :)

The original post made certain allegations against Microsoft, suggesting that Microsoft was using nefarious tactics against Google (on very flimsy evidence), on the very day that Microsoft brought out a really good beta of their long awaited search engine.
If that is not anti-Mcrosoft FUD, what is?

Has Bill Gates had liberal leanings? Sure.
But the point is, he backed George Bush in this elections, same as Zell Miller , and Ed Koch did.
You could just as well say Zell Miller and Ed Koch have been liberal most of their lives too.
They still backed President Bush though, as did Bill Gates. That's what matters.

Perhaps I was too harsh on a moronic Gates paid newbie who calls established members trolls?

Run along, ShillBoy. There are many letters to the editor from dead people you have to write before the sun goes down. And don't forget to haunt ZDnet and Cnet ...

He gave a few thousand bucks to the Bush campaign.

He's given millions to pro-abortion groups, anti-gun groups and other leftist organizations.

That's what matters.

Truth?
Based on flimsy to non-existent evidence and wild allegations on the Internet?
That i not truth.
Its called disinformation.
Has this guy bothered to check up his wild legations with Microsoft Research, who are actually responsible for the search technology?

And if they were stealing from Google (like they've stolen from dozens of other companies over the years) they would actually say so, right?

This is less about whether Microsoft is stealing from Google (though the preliminary evidence seems to indicate something to that effect) and more about a continuation of a very old pattern of behavior by Microsoft, namely stealing your competitions products and then either buying them out, forcing them out of the market with dumping or suing them out of existence.

Bottom line:
He backed Bush in the presidential campaign.

"He's given millions to pro-abortion groups, anti-gun groups and other leftist organizations"
Heck, we have Republican Senators like Specter who have backed pro-abortion gropus too.
And they are still siting in the US Senate representing the Republican Party.
We have Gulliani, who was twice mayor of New York on the Republcan ticket and is being talked about as a possible Republican Presidential candidate in 2008, he is pro-abortion as well.
You don't have a point.
