“Many people who want to read electronic books are discovering that they can do so on the smartphones that are already in their pockets — bringing a whole new meaning to “phone book.” And they like that they can save the $250 to $350 that they would otherwise spend on yet another gadget.”
“How the hell could they have thought this was a good idea or even legal? You can’t look up views on certain religions or atheism, but Christianity is a-okay? Discrimination, much? The only thing I find much stupider than that is lumping atheism with supernatural/paranormal events when atheism rejects those things. I take it back: thinking that spells, incantations, curses, and magic powers can actually work is pretty fucking stupid.” And people say Christianity is attacked in the US.
“Anyone who saw news coverage of Obama on Veterans Day might have smelled a rat right away: He didn’t wear a red tie that day, as he does in the picture, but a blue one, and he wore a winter coat over his suit. (We’ve seen some e-mails claiming that the picture is from the Ft. Hood memorial service. Obama did wear a red tie that day, but the memorial took place at Ft. Hood, against a backdrop of multiple flags including a prominent Air Force flag.) In fact, the picture was taken several months earlier, at a Memorial Day observation at Arlington National Cemetery.” Oh photoshop users.
“Let me preface the following by conceding that many of Nate’s arguments are quite persuasive. Most compelling is his observation about the media’s love affair with Palin. For all her complaints about the supposedly liberal national media, the media want to sell ads and Palin attracts eyeballs, holds listeners, and generates clicks. The media is the best thing she’s got going for her. Nate’s also right about the 2012 GOP field potentially being small and/or weak; if either Mike Huckabee or Newt Gingrich opt out–and certainly if both do–Palin’s path to the nomination is made easier.” The stuff about her being unpopular and not having a lot of experience and too rash in her conversation stand out the most to me.
“I’m sorry, but how the fuck could a game titled, “Hit the Bitch” be anti-violent?”
“Now then, do I think Palin is the favorite to win the Republican primary? Not necessarily. She’s certainly not the majority favorite and perhaps not the plurality favorite, depending on who runs. And you could fairly easily come up with a set of ten bullet points to argue against Palin’s chances. But I think she’ll run, and I think it would be a mistake to discount her chances too significantly given the makeup and mood of the Republican primary electorate.”
“The Google Phone may be a data only, VoIP driven device. And Google may be lining up at least AT&T to provide those data services for the Google Phone, says one person we spoke with today.” I am so in love with this idea it isn’t even funny.

“Real men do what I tell them to do.”
“A group of female House Republicans used the upset over new guidelines on breast cancer screening issued by an advisory panel earlier this week to highlight what they view as the dangers of government-administered health care and the Democrats’ bill to revamp the system.” Republicans attack independent medical professional for making a medical decision by saying this is an example of government intruding in medical decision, when the decision to intrude is by the Republicans protesting.
Lead by example managers.
” Joyce Bannantine presented a petition with 118 signatures to the Library Board of Trustees last month objecting to the open display in the teen area and offering free copies of the magazine Sex, Etc. The magazine is written for teens by teens under the oversight of Answer, a national sexuality organization at Rutgers University.”
“Sarah Palin’s “Going Rogue” hits stores Tuesday. But can you believe what you read? Check out these statements, contradicted by the facts or by other people on John McCain’s campaign, and see what you think.”
