[Wftl-lug] Bill Gates for President (WAS Re: Best Dilbert strip ever)

[Harry Holt]

Wow - you must be old!

Try not to be offended.  According to Godwin's Law, Internet discussions
become more and more likely to provoke comparisons involving Nazis or Hitler
as they grow.

And, while Bill Gates may not be "mass-murderer" evil, he is still one of
the *bad* guys, so bashing, complaining, vilifying, disparaging, and
bad-mouthing are all fair play.  He gives no quarter.
