Thanks again, to the President that took our good name and utterly ruined it globally. Thanks again to the complete fools that elected this fool, who was completely and utterly unqualified to run a baseball team (which he failed at) let alone a world superpower. January 20th can’t get here any sooner.

Mormons, Catholics Upset At Being Target Of Prop 8 Protests
How does this work? The Church moved to import millions (tens of millions?) of advertising dollars across state lines from Utah to California to ensure Proposition 8 and the banning of marriage rights for same-sex couples passed, and they’re upset now that others are using their free speech rights to protest the free speech that the Church used. That’s only extremely hypocritical, boys. Did the Churches honestly think they were exempt from scrutiny and criticism here…?
It is disturbing that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is being singled out for speaking up as part of its democratic right in a free election.
Members of the Church in California and millions of others from every faith, ethnicity and political affiliation who voted for Proposition 8 exercised the most sacrosanct and individual rights in the United States – that of free expression and voting.
While those who disagree with our position on Proposition 8 have the right to make their feelings known, it is wrong to target the Church and its sacred places of worship for being part of the democratic process.

Adblock Plus: the nuclear plug-in
Via Digg: “Adblock Plus, the Firefox browser plug-in that erases advertisements from web pages, is a killer of a killer app … or it could be if it became really popular.The widespread adoption of ad-blocking software could totally atomize online advertising. But, the numbers still aren’t high enough YET to spur a counterattack by the big guns, like Google.”
If this ever does take off and reached critical mass, I wonder what sort of outcry we’d see, from it, on the part of e-business. Personally, I don’t see any harm in web advertising, or targeted web advertising: bandwidth is NOT free, up or down the Internets, and ultimately someone needs to pay for it. The vast majority of websites, even high quality ones, are done by hobbyists–they don’t make a profit. They need a way to recoup bandwidth and hostings costs at the least.
