This ad was pointless. If Microsoft wants people to actually start using Vista, then they should probably talk about, you know, Vista.

"parroted propaganda that you have ingested from the Democrat slander machine?"
==================================================
Using big words doesn't make you smart, guy. Keep that in mind for your next post. But on the bright side, I'm honored that you finally used grammar check on your post this time.
Palin's executive experience is as the mayor of a town of roughly 6000. Chicago has entire neighborhoods bigger than that. And given his time in both the Illinois state legislature and the Senate, he has a lot more experience than the MILF who would be President.
The only dumba** here is McCain for not taking into account his age and health issues when picking a veep. And the best part is that he only met with her twice before offering the the slot to a woman who, in her own words, "has no idea what the V.P. does" If this is how McCain makes major decisions, he doesn't need to be anywhere near the White House.

Please. The only reason that McCain is where he is now is because of affirmative action. The privileged son of an admiral (who was himself the son of an admiral), McCain's piss poor grades and class rank would have meant that anyone else in his position couldn't be dog catcher, let alone a presidential nominee.
And it's not like McCain ever lied about anything important (except for, you know, his wedding vows), but when the wind blows you to a wealthy heiress who can finance your political ambitions, who cares if your wife is disfigured in a horrible accident?
And as far as changing positions to get elected, well...let's just say that before McCain debates Obama, McCain may want to debate himself first to see if he even HAS any consistent positions. He won't even support a bill with his own name on it. Maybe he should save time and just ask Joe Lieberman if he's changed his mind about anything else important.
But I think Palin was a good choice...what better way to show your "experience" by choosing as your running mate someone who has absolutely none herself?

I never said "all knowing," but some knowledge is basic enough that, as commander in chief, he needs to know it. This is especially true since he claims to be a foreign policy expert, and while the President doesn't have to be a genius, he should at least be able to get certain facts correct without having to be corrected again (and again and again).
And his cabinet, while important, is not there to make decisions FOR him, the cabinet's job is to ADVISE him; in the end, if McCain screws up he can blame his cabinet all he wants to, but as the President, it will be his fault. The buck stops with him.

He chooses not to use it because he can't understand it...kind of like how I choose not to be a brain surgeon because I don't understand surgery. McCain has said himself that he is basically computer illiterate, and that (along with not knowing much about the economy, repeatedly confusing Sunni and Shi'a, etc.) worries me a bit.
