On the other hand, if it has handwriting recognition (unlikely), a complete office package (iWork or whatever), a system for managing files and applications (a Finder), a universal clipboard, and a system with a very cleaver user interface, then maybe.

That, and keep it under $500. Otherwise I’ll just get a used IBM thinkpad tablet and slap OS X on it.

That’s all I got.

Gov. Palin jokes that she can practically see Russia from Alaska, but Obama wants to bring that vision to reality, here, at home.

“What you call the violent past, that was a time when thousands of people were being murdered every month by our own government. … We were on the right side,”

Now, let me just ask you, what happened when the US pulled out of Vietman? For one, the North Vietmenese slaughtered thousands of people, including about 25% of Cambodia’s population.

There are photographs of the last ships and airlifts from Vietnam, and the Vietnamese people desperately trying to jump aboard.

Ayers is right about one thing, he wasn’t on our side.

And I know I’ve said it before, but it bares repeating, Obama either didn’t know he was “sharing coffee” (to paraphrase Ayers) with a terrorist sympathizer (unlikely because Obama is intelligent, right), or Obama knew and didn’t care. Given his interesting assortment of other so-called “acquaintances,” I think we know the answer. Or at least 48% of us do.

“Frankly, I don’t think we [the Weather Underground] did enough, just as today I don’t think we’ve done enough to stop these wars,”

The model of capitalism is ideally similar to that of “survival of the fittest.” Which means that over time, the weaker business ideas die off, and the new successful ones emerge and stay. When the environment changes, some businesses have to fail, and some new ones have to succeed.

What has happened here, is we have introduced a large food supply, if you will, to a dying breed of poorly-managed corporations. These companies should have died out. They would have, under a better treasury department, been forced to file for bankruptcy. Their assets would have been split up, their CEOs would have been sorted through, and a better company would have emerged. That’s how it’s supposed to happen.

I encourage you all to take a listen to the first 18 minutes of Mark Levin’s 11/12/2008 broadcast. On the audio page, you’ll find a link to that broadcast (available as a stream, and as a download). Or just click here. Download it to an ipod if you want. It’s worth a listen. If you enjoy it, Mark has a podcast and you can automatically download each show (for free!) each day.

For those of you that don’t know, Mark is a lawyer that specializes in constitutional law, and a former political advisor to several people on Ronald Reagan’s cabinet. I think he may be the most intelligent voice of talk radio. Give it a listen, you’ll probably learn something.

Some people have basically accused Palin of costing McCain the election.

It’s true that I’ve met people that didn’t “mind” McCain, but couldn’t “stand” Palin. So those votes were certainly influenced. But who’s fault is that? McCain’s. McCain choose her, probably against advice, and he took that risk on his own. If you want to blame someone, blame him.

McCain’s entire campaign was obviously poorly managed. For one, he didn’t work the press as he should have. We should have seen McCain and Palin on every news and talk-radio show imaginable. Palin could have handled an honest debate with someone like O’Reilly or Hannity. And McCain’s can take anyone on. Why did they hide? Probably because they were overconfident.

But also, you have to consider McCain’s early pact with Obama to accept federal funding and cap their campaign funds at 84 million dollars. Something Obama didn’t honor. Obama also didn’t honor an agreement to debate “any time, any place” with McCain, preferring to stick to the typical three big-network debates. When you make a deal with someone like Obama, you have to accept his willingness to break it. Obama received over a million dollars in donations every day for the past few months of his campaign. And, of course, Obama’s camp “keeps the change.”

McCain lost, and it is only his fault. That, and the gullible american youth vote.

So when they (and I) get older, we’ll know who to blame.

A couple of things I feel are worth pointing out:

1) The DOW has dropped about 800 points since Obama became president-elect. In recorded history, this has never happened on the day after an election.

2) As reported by our friends at lgf, Obama can’t wait to rid the US of Nuclear Weapons so as to set a good example for North Korea and Iran. (He said this before the election.)

3) The leader of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has expressed his excitement over the election.

In all fairness, Obama hasn’t actually done anything yet. This is merely a harbinger.

I’m sure Oprah and the majority of hollywood are entirely happy today. But for me, this is a somber beginning to what may be some of the worst years in recent history.

Unlike the flocks of liberals that said they’d move to Canada if Bush was re-elected, I’m staying here to fight this one out. If you truly believe in America, despite how easily the majority of the voting population was blinded, then stick it out here with me. We can do it, and in four years, we’ll truly take back the country.

A 507 group has released the following advertisement which paints a clear picture of Obama’s character:

I urge those considering giving Obama their votes to please consider that the president not only runs the country, he also sets an example. Let’s hope our children pick better friends than Obama.

I found an interesting blog post that summarizes the duo’s connections pretty well, but I think this video is more convincing:

Can we elect someone with such close ties to terrorism to fight terrorism? Or, can we elect someone stupid enough to not realize he was sitting with the devil? How’s he supposed to find Ben Laden if he can’t find the real Bill Ayres?

Obama voted with his party 97% during his short time in the US Senate, when the Democrats had majority control. I don’t know about you, but I don’t think we can afford the “failed policies” of his reign anymore…
