Wow, ninth cousins? I don't even have a remote idea who my ninth cousins could be. Maybe I'm somehow a part of the Merovingian Dynasty - once or twice removed. As long as I don't share that damned 13th bloodline, all is good. :tongue2
In reality, the old proverb "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree" can speak volumes of the values instilled through the family during a child's upbringing. |
Kerry and Bush are lucky bastards ... I'd give my right leg to be cousins with Hugh Heffner. He'd be obliged to treat me as family right? :p |

So that means it's acceptable then, right?
It sounds like you all believe that moral deficiency (or bankruptcy) is okay as long as you're making money in the process. |

How about if you're the one that's indirectly benefitting from it. Do you just turn a blind eye in that case?

My point is you can trace everyone's ancestors back to some ed up action...but that says nothing about who a person is generations after.
:rolleyes:
If your great grandfather used to be a homosexual drug dealing prostitute that gang raped 49 beavers and massacred 3,200 teenage drag queens across the globe...does that mean i should judge you for his actions? |

Well we're all supporting a totalitarian regime in one way or another. Unless you're telling me that you've never bought anything that was made in China ...
So yes I guess it is ok if everyone else is doing it. If you're not going to alter your purchasing habits to satisfy a moral code, why should companies behave any differentely? |

| I think some of the lessons learned is that it's okay, so long as you have influencial family ties and don't admit to anything, even when the evidence is staring you down. as the press doesn't have a quote of admittance, you're guaranteed 40% of the vote. Wait, have i gone off-topic? damn:p |

Your so quick to judge Bush...yet did you think about the Jews of the Holocaust when you bought your computer?...Do you know how IBM helped the Nazis keep track of the killing of the Jews? So before you judge Bush, judge yourself...youa re no different...he wasnt there, nor where you..but you both in the same support it...with your logic. |
