I was just jokingly saying that I look at each issue differently. I side with the Republicans more often than not, but there are many issues where I side with the Democrats.

Two Democrats oppose it, I don't see the Republicans supporting it. Even the Republican-controlled Senate wants to cut funding to the project.

What you say is correct, but what scares me is that there are morons in the government who will think of things like this and others who will support it. Seriously, the fact that they have the guts to actually make a statement that this idea had passed through their heads either makes them brave to face the public opinion, or stupid. In my opinion, stupid.

For this particular program, I don't think it should've ever been made avaliable to the public. I think it should've been displayed amongst the research groups, and maybe tried something different using the basic idea, or file it away. What scares me is that they planned to register next week, if I remember correctly. It progressed way too far.

Ill have to agree with Gekko. Im not saying Gimp is a hairbrained idiot, but George Bush could not possibly have thought of and put this into effect all by himself.

It was a Pentagon research group, Bush isn't running it. I haven't heard Bush support it either.
