Sorry Frank – you've lost me as well. Nothing in this post was about politics – just about the App Store and Apple's arrogance towards developers on some of these subjects. Can't see any need for throwing politics into this.

for three weeks i was surrounded by over fifty people over 65 yo who vote republican and are foreign to the apple computer, as many of their friends and family are. it's like walking into abercrombie; loud, hip and strange. arrogance on top of all those fancy commericials apple has on television just ads fuel to the fire. EVEN APPLE PLAYS OFF OF THIS NOTION WITH THE APPLE VS PC GUY AND THEIR ATTIRE AND RHETORIC.

If you type in "liberal arrogance" into google, you'll see what Fox news is doing to the word. And then you add it to apple, and there you go. Do I have to explain everything? 🙂

What do politics have to do with this? (I happen to be an extreme liberal)

woah woah woah, i am a republican and have never even heard of that, everyone in my house has and loves their apples. we are converting our entire family to mac. i know many many other republicans that have apples. so don't go around with that crap. apple does great work, and people can accept that despite their party of choice.
just don't go off saying certain parties (namely republicans) aren't supposed to like macs.
