"Im glad that you posted a video on this controversy. Isn’t this a shame? I think these over sensitive mommies need to get an effin grip and get back to taking care of their kids, instead of jackin their jaws on the interwebz. SHUT IT!!! Oh boo hoo - some company hurt my feelings with their humorous ad. So they picked on you a little bit, get over it! It’s not like they sold you something that doesn’t work or told some huge lie. Good grief! You don’t hear guys screaming about the Cialis commercials…”Cialis slighted my manhood - they are insinuating that I can’t get it up and that insults my manliness!!” Jeezus…Think before you spew stupid comments all you mommy bloggers. You just made yourselves look like, as Loren says, “DOPES” 4four1ones 1938Media “Seven” - Founding Father wilotw.com SHEEEEEESH!!!!" - 4four1ones

"Chris, I couldn’t agree with you more. Sadly, I must say that I am a Bank of America customer and will be switching very soon. They have done nothing but piss me off with their uninformed operators, slow banking transactions, holds on checks, and a genuine sense that they really don’t care if they lose me as a customer or not. They are way too big. They are gobbling up every floundering bank and mortgage company. This is getting out of hand. They are one of the most powerful banks in our Nation, right up there with Chase. I’m taking my business to Sterling Bank very soon. Great Post. Stay safe in your travels. Keep on truckin. You are an awesome person… All my best, J.P.

“My son tried telling me about how Obama is redistributing wealth (his mom is Republican). I'm so ready for this to be over.”
October 31 at 7:54 pm - Link
ROFLMAO!! - Alex Scoble CISSP
oh yeah - we all are - Capn' One-Eye ☠
Funny, she had no problems with redistributing MY wealth to her! :-) - Robert Scoble
What? Milan's already talking politics? - Thomas Hawk
Tell him that you're about to redistribute his allowance if he continues with that kind of talk : ) - Mike Doeff
I wouldn't mind some redistribution of Bill Gates money into my checkbook... it'll never happen... but one can dream. - Mike Wills
Nah, just tell him allowances are handouts and you've decided to honor his beliefs and end socialism in your house. - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)
Mike, you obviously didn't forward the email when you were told to do so =P - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)
You should just block him. - Akiva Moskovitz
you & me both. - Zee from WeDoCreative
Obama is the one who admitted to wanting to spread the wealth, perhaps he should cut out the $4000,000 commercials and spread some of his own wealth. I work for my money and have no desire to spread it among any other than those I personally choose. Who are you to decide where my money goes? You lefties are welcome to pay additional taxes but because you have a belief doesn't mean we should all be forced to follow. - Henry DeBardeleben
Hey if you don't like progressive taxation, you can always go to a country that has a different form of taxation, Henry. - Alex Scoble CISSP
Henry, this perfectly sums up the issues I have with the current Republican party "but because you have a belief doesn't mean we should all be forced to follow" - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)
Henry, when you loose your job that makes you your money or get injured and have to go on disabilities, let's talk again shall we? - Johnny Worthington
Actually, I like this country just fine, perhaps you should your friends on left to a country that already practices socialism. - Henry DeBardeleben
@Henry Rubbish. The well off in this country pay some of the lowest taxes in the free world and STILL constantly whine about it. Through the longest sustained period of economic growth in the US (late 40s through the early 60s) the top marginal tax rate was 91%. Now it's 35%. There have been two times in the 20th and 21st centuries that it was below 50%. In the years leading up to the Great Depression and in the last 20 years. Seems obvious to me that low taxes on the wealthy are bad for the economy. - Jeff Jones
Henry: Obama is planning to _cut_ taxes. - Tanath
Hey Henry how about you righties start footing the bill for the phony war in Iraq? And we lefties will be hanging around telling you righties how it's gonna be so stay tuned and get ready to jump. Come Tuesday you're going to be properly instructed. You on the right will find out that your decision to spread our wealth to Exxon et. al. was the wrong call. - ScottBourne
AMEN Jeff! Thank you for that comment. I just can not understand why all these people crying socialism and redistribution are worried. I bet nearly 80% of these idiots do not even fall within the tax bracket that Obama has set up!!! They would actually benefit from his tax plan. It's sad that the GOP has brainwashed so many Americans to hate Obama and accuse him of horrible things. THE GOP IS MORALLY BANKRUPT. - 4four1ones
Henry: you made your money in this country BECAUSE of the system that was setup here. If the poor riot and burn down your business, then you won't be getting rich. Or, how do you distribute your goods? BECAUSE of "wealth redistribution." North Carolina gave Dell something like $300 million in tax breaks to move a plant there (that they are now closing). THAT is wealth redistribution too. You all benefit from all sorts of goodies and people who are healthy and able to work for you. - Robert Scoble
Scoblini is on FIRE!! I admire your political passion dude! This discussion rox. Wish we could have talked about this at the last night of Gnomedex at the private dinner with Chris - 4four1ones
You benefit from having educated workers. You benefit from having healthy workers. You benefit from having a government that moderates the highs and the lows through taxation policies and "redistribution of wealth." The system is partially why you got rich and, so, when rich people like you say you're against redistribution of wealth I just have to call bullshit. - Robert Scoble
If you look at the top countries for quality of life, most are socialist. If you really want to live in a country where it's everyone for themselves and you can make as much money as you want, go to Russia. - Will Higgins
The thing everyone misses is that our tax system is a socialist tool. It totally redistributes wealth based on a huge number of rules known as the IRS tax code. Like Robert points out, states and the federal government often offer favorable inducements to sway companies to do things. This is all forms of social and corporate socialism. Unfortunately most people don't understand. - Jim McCusker
Oh and by the way Henry, "who are you to decide where my money goes?" We're the majority. America is a Democracy, where the majority RULES. - Will Higgins
Constitutional Democratic Republic. Not Democracy. Subtle, but it changes things. - xero
there are 2 kinds of people in this world, democrats and republicans.... what a crock! sounds like a friggin game to me. - Mot Faerin
Out of the mouths of babes. I hope you let him stay up late tonight! - Peter Simard
The U.S. has pretty much always had a progressive tax system. As any economist will tell you, it's an optimization of capitalism: it keeps the wheels of the machine greased, and makes wealth creation more efficient than a flat tax system would. As any capitalist will tell you, it takes money to make money. The more money you want to make, the more money you gotta pony up. Anyone who says otherwise is a socialist. - Victor Ganata
Oh xero you're so picky :) Being a republic means there's no monarch that can dissolve gvmt, which is handy. And yes the democratic method in America is different to many other democracies, but the basic principals are pretty simple. - Will Higgins
But it's not a democracy at all. - Tanath
Will: we are NOT a democracy. Go back to civics class. Do not collect $200. - Robert Scoble
OK, but technically, the U.S. can still be classified as a representative democracy. - Victor Ganata
OTOH, democracy *isn't* about majority rule. I'm still a big fan of Madisonian principles: the purpose of government should be to protect minorities from the tyranny of the majority. Still, you've got to pay taxes. And you don't get to pick and choose where your money goes. - Victor Ganata
so the republicans finally found a soundbite that finally sticks - meh recession - adolfo foronda
Hell, there are a lot of people right now who see "redistribution of wealth" and "socialism" and shrug, and maybe ask, "So how quickly can I get my money?" - Victor Ganata

"This needs to get on the front page. Please send this to your friends and family. Disgusting GOP trash. I would like to have the name of the young man in the video who voiced a death threat against Senator Obama. I am calling upon the videographer to forward this evidence to the Secret Service, CIA, and FBI. This young extremist needs to be put behind bars. This is an outrage!! The people in this video are wretched. Nothing more than a bunch of McCarthyist witch-hunters who can't shoot a hole through Obama's policies except to call him a socialist and terrorist - which HE IS NOT you moronic trash. Stupid parrots. And the girl who called Barack a terrorist - idiots like you shouldnt be allowed to vote. Even McCain has repudiated misnomers of Barack being an Arab, Muslim and Terrorist. McCain himself said Barack is a decent man, a good family man that he only has fundamental differences with regarding the direction of the Nation.

"Plain and Simple: The douchebaggery that surrounds McCain and his advisors can be seen from outer space. This out of touch old codger has no idea what in the FARK he is doing. He looks and acts like a deer in headlights within the political arena. Obama is a bear and I hope he eats John for lunch. He is employing stall tactics because he knows that Obama will bust his ass in the debates. McCain is standing on broken crutches - he doesn't stand a chance. To make himself look even more douchey, that jackass jumped in front of the cameras and basically spit in Obama's face in regards to standing together as a united front in regards to the bailouts. I really dont understand why peeps are hellbent on supporting McCain - he doesn't know jack sh!t and he is nothing more than a liar & smear artist. Go buy another car McCain! Make sure that your lovely wife has a $400,000.00 outfit on in support of you at the debate, so she can at least look good while you are getting your ass pwned by Obama." - 4four1ones

"Left or Right is not the cause of our current economic melt down, time is. It is only a matter of time before the false fiat monetary system we have will crumble, now the true raping of America begins. The banks who made poor business choices now are asking for bail outs from the same people who are loosing their homes, the same people who have worked for 70% of the money they earned. The bankers will get the buy outs, and get bonuses for a job well done, we on the other hand will be left holding the bag of shit they created for us. If anyone wants to point fingers or blame someone for this crisis the Federal Reserve is the main cause of concern. To the above I say - "Nail on the head!"" - 4four1ones

First, let me say that Marshall stole my thunder!! LOL. I was totally writing this up when I found this on my new favorite feed, thanks to @drewolanoff and readburner for introducing me to Marshall. Second, I am leaning towards reaadwritewebmans arguement. The mere fact that Google announces in section 9 of the EULA that you retain the rights to your content, but in section 11 Google implies that they can use it how they see fit as long as it is transmitted through their services worries me. I have always been concerned about how much power we give to these companies, and how we mindlessly click through TOS and EULAs because we desperately want to use a shiny, new service.

I don't like the looks of this pattern. These storms are lining up off the West African coast. I suspect there's an El Nino pattern setting up. We're seeing signs of it here in the PacNW with recent "Pineapple Express" storms hitting us every couple days here in Seattle. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg

Interestingly, there's been sudden heavy rain here in Pune, India at just about the same time as those storms have been building up. I've seen this phenomenon a few times before: if there is a cold wave in the North of India, or even in the US or Europe, at times the weather seems to change correspondingly here. (Although this is still officially the rainy season here, it hasn't been raining for some time in this state, and it looked liked the rains were over - till now.) - Vasudev Ram
