Blankmind and All: You asked: "Since when does the white house care about the law?
Great question. IMO nobody has upheld it perfectly, however in most recent history Ronald Reagan did quite well considering the circumstances that he faced at that time (the houses, and economic environment, cold war of which ultimately was won due to a vision of freedom and economics, etc.). In other words, doing what is right for America and not what is right for the sake of political gain at the sake of freedom in it's broadest sense.
Today as far as I have seen the most representative of the idealistic conservative values overall which is running is Allen Keyes. He speaks with truth, conviction and sincerity (the likes of Reagan). Perfect? No. Will he win? Probably not, but I am hopeful that he will at least contribute to the Republican party in pushing it into the more overall conservative goals of which are genuine, and rid the very warm moderates.
I am unaware however of his or for that matter McCain's or George W.'s views are on specific matters in regards to this case.
If you can site some facts as to their standing (if any) on the current DOJ case vs. MSFT, I would appreciate this.
Orrin Hatch, (I noticed a mention on a previous post) I'm glad he is out. Once a politician with some respect in my view lost it with his vindication of free enterprise. Mr. Hatch's selective, "Listen to me, but don't watch my feet" B.S. is not be acceptable in regards to enterprise. On another related note:
It seems so ironic to see the MSFT chartists and crystal ball readers to be so bearish on this board and others that suggest MSFT's growth rate is and will be slowing in the middle of such a liberal DOJ attack. November may prove this a joke, as just that.
