Re: NYT: How the U.S. Lost Out on iPhone Work
Should questions are moral/value judgments. I'm sure if you saw their living conditions you'd feel sorry for them. The question is what's their alternative? Like Milton Friedman says, a nation...

Why? According to the article, Apple couldn't exist at all it it had to solely depend on American suppliers. It now takes the entire world to come together to make a single product. The question...

I didn't expect you to be. How's that big government working for you, BTW?

Re: SOPA, Keystone XL and NDAA
That's the point. They will cook up the sludge regardless of what we do. Now, the Canadians will just sell their oil to China and we will forego that supply difference with more Middle Eastern. ...

SOPA, Keystone XL and NDAA
Now, I'm less sure about voting Obama in the fall. Arguments can be made for why Democrats support these things, but they aren't good.

Re: Mitt Romney Hit Piece
Newt has no real human support. His super PAC got $5 million (http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/comment/2012/01/the-kingmaker.html) from a single warhawk. Paul takes the majority of...

Oh well, it looks like it really is over. The evangelicals just endorsed Rick Santorum who doesn't have a chance. If they had endorsed Ron Paul, they might have had a shot at returning moral...

I may have prematurely called it for Romney. This situation reminds me of the quote, "quantity is its own quality." South Carolina has gotten much closer. Perry and Huntsman are dead and Santorum...

Re: Mitt Romney Hit Piece
I do agree that this is good debate practice for him early on and softens the impending Obama attacks come summer. Have you resigned yourself to Romney yet?

Don't get me wrong. The advert doesn't tell you that Mitt did anything unethical. But Palin, Gingrich and Perry (somewhat softly) have been hitting him hard like they were Democrats. You don't...

Re: Ridiculous
It may be propaganda, but I don't think it's fake. The Dear Leader is supposed to be a god. Isn't that how religions work?

Mitt Romney Hit Piece
I love capitalism, but this guy is screwed. When Mitt Romney Came to Town (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=BLWnB9FGmWE). 30 minutes of heartbreak.

Re: What should we disqus here?
How? For most Paul supporters, it's him or nothing. The only way I see Romney getting dovish is if the GOP itself is transformed.
