Why did Microsoft hire Ralph Reed/Century again? What issues is the former head of the Christian Coalition providing guidance on?

There's a coder who's sure all thats open is gold
And she's buying a copy of windows
And when she gets there she sees that sources are closed
With a lawsuit she can get what she came for

I bet most of people have donated a higher percentage of their earnings to some good cause, than Bill Gates has.

I remember reading somewhere that MS has more Revenue than GM motors, though I'm not sure how much Gates has. Plus, there's his stock in the company, etc...
