You wanna use the software world to boost your argument? Fine. Tell me when that perfect software is written. Define it please. Let me know when we can end our need for new software. When we have that perfect "success metric" and no new metrics are necessary.
Anyone who has followed your posting history on Free Republic knows....
.... that I'm a happily married man. Just pointing that out since you don't even know that about me. Just as you know nothing about social conservatism.
You don't like someone or something? Invent a government power to crush the opposition, and by all means, demand that the US military step in to do your dirty work for you.
Dirty work? Hell yes. I respect the dirty work as you call it the military does. And if you don't agree that our borders are important enough to defend, then I suppose - like Ron Paul - you would like to slash in half our military budgets.
How libertarian of of you.
My pleasure. The "perfect" software is written when it satisfies the client's requirements, meets the market demand, delights customers, and can be delivered in such a way that producing it is profitable for those who wrote the code and distributed the software.

I don't care to know anything about you other than that which you present here on Free Republic. I take it you bristled at me referring to you as "ma'am." I apologize: I assumed you were a woman because your arguments typically flow from a very emotional, irrational source.
Dirty work? Hell yes. I respect the dirty work as you call it the military does.
Wonderful. My Naval Academy classmates, I'm sure, would appreciate the fact that you respect the work they do for you and for all American citizens.
And if you don't agree that our borders are important enough to defend, then I suppose - like Ron Paul - you would like to slash in half our military budgets.
That's quite a leap in logic, my emotionally-wrought, hand-wringing friend. This may blow your mind, but being a libertarian does not necessarily mean one is soft on national defense, including the most important aspect of it - defending our borders.
How libertarian of of you.
Thank you.
