Starting to be interesting how muc hwe all rely on the internet, I-phones, etc to communicate and how much power that puts into the hands of others.

Apple is led by moral midges.
They jumped aboard the anti CO2 idiots bandwagon. I'm sure Jobs personally breast feeds an infant in the dinning room in feminist solidarity.
Management of Apple will stand at the gate and wave good by when Obama decided to round up US Jews and ship them to camps.

Quick. Assemble the apple defense force...they appear to have an opening in their armor and need all the FUD you can muster to thwart the attack.

I may or may not agree with Apple decisions. That’s my choice. As a private business, Apple also has choice they should be allowed make. Like it not – let the market decide. If you don’t like Apple’s policies, don’t use an iPhone if it makes you feel better.

Someone should photoshop the hammer & sickle into the apple of the Apple logo.

A private enterprise is not obligated to give anyone a forum.

I’m waiting for the Apple and Scientology cults to merge... the E-Meter could be repackaged as the iMeter

I looked at some of the cartoons. They were also critical of Obama, if you can imagine that.

Well, in the first place, it’s Apple’s business to decide.

And in the second place, I’m suspicious of any cartoonist who wins a Pulitzer Prize.

If you go to his website, linked at the article, you will find a really, really vile attack on the Catholic Church and Pope Bendict, down below the cartoon about his winning the prize. Sure enough, he’s exactly the kind of vile slime you would expect the Pulitzer Prize Committee to nominate.

The only surprising thing is that the left-wingers at Apple would reject a vicious left-wing cartoonist like Mark Fiore.

Yeah... bash Apple, but ignore Gates and Microsoft’s extremely leftist agenda. Hmmm... And we bash the Left for double standards.
