Intel will end support for Oregon Boy Scouts over Scouts' policy on gays
The Oregonian ^ | 11/11/12 | Mike Rogoway

Posted on 11/11/2012 2:28:10 PM PST by aimhigh

Boy Scouts in Oregon have few benefactors more generous than Intel, which has awarded hundreds of thousands of dollars to Boy Scout troops and Cub Scout packs over the past few years. . .

The donations, though, are now drying up. They're a casualty of a change in Intel's requirements -- which attaches a nondiscrimination pledge to the donation.

Just like JC Penny, it's a good time to short Intel.

And since when did Intel corporation become a supporter? Something I thought alone should be bothersome.

Just disgusting. No organization does more for boys and young men than Scouts. If there were queer leaders or scouts, my son would have gone nowhere near the organization.

Well, now we know what ‘intel’ wasn’t derived from.

Are there any computers that don’t have Intel parts in them? Or even mobile devices? That’s the disturbing part. It almost seems like computers and electronics have become a monopoly, or an oligopoly, where you essentially can’t do much more than support liberalism by simply buying a computer.

Apple
relies on Intel processors for its notebook and
desktop computers, and ARM-based designs for
its booming smartphone and tablet products — leading some to fret that Apple could one day
switch to ARM-based chips for the Mac.

I’m hoping intel is eventually dropped from the Mac.
Intel wants inside the iPad.

Is Intel supporting any gay groups or organizations that are not inclusive to heterosexual people?

If so, time to call them out publically.

They really want the whole world to become homosexuals. Not much of a future, though.

I am sick to death of these homosexuals trying to force the rest of us to accept them. Take me back to the 50s!!!

Now, here’s an opportunity for Conservatives to $upport a worthwhile cause.

And let them know where the ca$h comes from - CONSERVATIVES.

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/11/11/Obama-Won-t-Fight-For-Gay-Marriage-His-Second-Term

” On Friday, Obama told an MTV audience that he would not fight for gay marriage his second term, intoning that “it would be up to future generations of Americans to implement meaningful reform.”

Here’s the kicker; realizing that some states are now endorsing gay marriage, Obama suddenly became a champion of states’ rights, asserting, “For us to try to legislate federally into this area is probably the wrong way to go.”

When the states endorse Obama’s positions, he’s a states’ rights guy. When they don’t, he runs roughshod over them with the federal government.

Obama continued on Friday:

First of all, I’ve been very clear about my belief that same-sex couples have to be treated before the eyes of the law the same way as heterosexual couples. I think that’s the right thing to do. It’s based on my personal experience, seeing loving couples who are committed to each other, raising kids and are just outstanding people. And I was supportive of civil unions, but they taught me, if you’re using different words, if you’re somehow singling them out, they don’t feel true equality”

Well this is interesting. I'm in the position of finally wanting to build myself a new pc (this one's 8 years old) and have priced out two pc's. The first is an Intel IvyBridge CPU, @3.6GHz, MotherBoard, 32GB of memory, etc.. Cost: $597 (not counting case, power supply, DVD, etc..)

The second is an AMD FM4100 UNLOCKED @ 3.6Ghz with 32GB of memory, motherboard, etc.. (no case, power supply or DVD.) Cost $349.

Now that I know Intel's supporting the homosexual's, I'm buying AMD and saving myself the $230 bucks. I am NOT spending my money with companies that work against my views and interests.
