|     * No matter how much Bush screws his people, he is still
|       president! == No matter how much Ballmer screws his customers,
|       MS is still popular.
| 
|     * Bush talks a lot. He is able to make people see non-existent weapons.    
|       == Ballmer was actually operated on for talking too much...
| 
|     * Bush rules his people by FUD... == Ballmer wins market 
|       share by FUD. Telling users that Linux is communism and that open 
|       source does not have technical support and its insecure.
| 
|     * Bush takes advantage of moments of grief to further his fascism... == 
|       Microsoft takes advantage of suffering children in developing 
|       countries...
| 
|     * Bush is obsessed with national security... == Microsoft is
|       obsessed with a one size fits all frenzy...
