Ashcroft & Jackson
This story is part of the larger story that brought us the culture of corruption now being told under the heading of treasongate. Remember that Microsoft funded Ashcroft's political carrier and that "What Was Wrong with Harry" Myers was in part that she was a corporate lawyer for Microsoft.

Ashcroft was of course the man who brought us the Patriot Act durring Bush's first four years and caused the DOJ to abrogate its responsibilites after Microsoft was found guilty of antitrust violations. H Myers is the Bush crony who withdrew her nomination to the Supreme Court when AP exposed her connecton to a lottery lobiest for a company in Rhode Island. One of the principles in that company had helped Bush get into the Air National Guard.

Bill Gates co-founder of Microsoft was also the co-chair that gave us the WTO police riots in Seattle. Seattle is ground zero.

This is the story of corporations ripping off what taxpayers have built to make their lives better and then using that booty to make things worse. Do you all remember Judge Jackson? Do you know he was up for a Supreme Court nomination until he got the task of pointing out that Microsoft was (perhaps still is) a criminal organization?

The recent agreements between Real Networks and rumors of AOL being sold to Microsoft (Steve Chase now quiting) require attention now. The Supremes can not call more attention to this culture of corruption.

Trick or Treat
what a ride.
