Oracle is not better than Microsoft SQL Server just because I use Oracle, neither is Unix/Linux better that Windows, just becasue Bill Gates is making too much money and I am not.

I fucking challenge you to show me how windows is better in any enviroment.you asked kit for evidnece, I ASK YOU FOR EVIDENCE! My windows system needs defragmentation on a monthly basis as I have XP whereas in Ubuntu I have only defragged the thing thrice! When running a windows server it is necessary to reboot to maintain the best possible condition, I have watched a LINUX server run for 8 years uninterrupted at a nearby college! I honestly dont know what fucking planet you are on!

I'm sure that some people voted for him because he is black, and I'm sure some people didn't vote for him for exactly the same reason. But we have to realize, that not every single person in the country is racist. A lot of the voters looked at the two candidates and voted fairly. They chose Obama because they like his values, his ideas, and his campaign. We voted him to run our country and as a hope to make everything better after the disaster that was Bush. And maybe people voted for him because they didn't want another Bush. Who cares? It happened because it happened. And if everything goes to hell, then go ahead and say I told you so, but at least give the a chance before you start rallying the troops to bring him down.
