Lack of (political) exprience isn't a bug, it's a feature
As the GOP sets out to scrub-clean Palin after the vet, HuffPost coins Microsoft to note:
“So with a party brand as damaged as the GOP’s is right now, lack of experience isn’t a bug, it’s a feature.”
Some say it’s all a Rove tactic to get through the convention – not sure I believe that, but one has to wonder how truly excited McCain is going into the home stretch. Clearly ironic though for McCain to flush “experience” as his calling card.
Course the wisdom is he had no choice. With the historic speech from Barack last week – even Reagan’s campaign director Ed Rollins called it the best acceptance speech in political history – on every front McCain has an uphill battle.
The geniuses at Microsoft once again clone The Apple
One has to wonder if Microsoft senior strategists ever have their own ideas. This job posting for a number of US cities clearly is an ad for “genius bar” staffers. The big question is in what venue? Since Microsoft doesn’t operate retail, they’ll need a partner for their Guru Trial. Surely anti-Vista fanboys need not apply.
My guess is this is being pushed by their new ad team: Crispin Porter + Bogusky.
Drink up NASA
NASA nerds are chugging the bubbles. Wapo reports “There were champagne corks popping in the downlink room”… Not something you hear often from our space team. Of course the reason is that they have formally, and scientifically verified water on Mars. Cheers to the team at NASA for putting another space myth to rest.
Welcome to barbarism.
Where even justice is corrupt.
§ 482 “…to ‘establish justice.’ This must for ever be one of the great ends of every wise government; and even in arbitrary governments it must, to a great extent, be practiced, at least in respect to private persons, as the only security against rebellion, private vengeance, and popular cruelty. But in a free government it lies at the very basis of all its institutions. Without justice being freely, fully, and impartially administered, neither our persons, nor our rights, nor our property, can be protected. And if these, or either of them, are regulated by no certain laws, and are subject to no certain principles, and are held by no certain tenure, and are redressed, when violated, by no certain remedies, society fails of all its value; and men may as well return to a state of savage and barbarous independence. ”
Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution, 1833
