This looting thing is the first part of this business I
feel I really can't accept. Why, why why? Got to get
over this.

In the meantime, I'd like to do a study on this Rumsfeld
character... I'd heard that Kissinger called him "the most
ruthless man I've ever met". After getting some samples
of what comes out of this guy's trap, I believe it. I've
heard his demeanor is smooth and paternal, and that's one
thing, but just to read what this bugger says... talk about
slick as goose grease. Even I almost agree with him during
the actual time I'm reading. Then, I'm like, "wait, this
is the most assinine thing I've ever heard". Dangerous
stuff. Microsoft should hire this guy to do their Shared
Source PR.
