Seriously ... why does MSFT create groups like this? It makes them look ridiculous. Do Bill and Steve REALLY think we're that stupid? On second thought ... we buy Windows don't we?

I don't know anything about the Association for Competitive Technology, but Citizens Against Government Waste has been around for years. From their web site:

cagw.org

Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) is a 600,000 member, private, non-partisan, non-profit organization dedicated to educating Americans about the waste, mismanagement, and inefficiency in the federal government. Founded in 1984 by the late industrialist J. Peter Grace and syndicated columnist Jack Anderson, CAGW is the legacy of the President's Private Sector Survey on Cost Control, also known as the Grace Commission.

To call this a Microsoft group because Microsoft is one of the organization's contributors is dishonest and a sign of the reporter's bias.
