No, because if you do something one way, they will complain they want it the other way. Some people are only happy when they make other as unhappy as they are. How else do you think Obama got elected?

Obama got elected because is is smarter and has a better education than McCain. McCain finished in the bottom 5 of his class in Annapolis while Obama finished at the top of his class at Harvard.

Also I think Americans are finally tired of the greed of big corporations and Wall Street. If all wireless companies did have the same phones, they would have to compete with better customer service, better coverage and better rates. We all know, the more competition we have the lower prices can fall..

“Obama got elected because is is smarter and has a better education than McCain. McCain finished in the bottom 5 of his class in Annapolis while Obama finished at the top of his class at Harvard.”
Do you have any idea how difficult it is to get into Harvard? Every year thousands apply and only a few thousand are accepted. You cannot even apply to Annapolis. A couple hundred of students are appointed to Annapolis every year. At Harvard the work is difficult but if you work hard you can get through it. At Annapolis they spend the first week doing absolutely everything they can think up to get you to leave. Then the hard work begins. Many people would argue that graduating from Annapolis is a greater feet then being in the top of a...

Um no, that was hail bop.

Jim Jones was a religious cult leader who told all of his followers if they simply believed in him he would solve all their problems. He used empty promises and message of hope and change. In the end he ordered the mass suicide of over 900 of his American followers by having them drink cool aid laced with cyanide. It was the largest non-disaster loss of civilian life in US history till 9-11.

Since then any time some one fallows a leader who acquires a mass fallowing based on an empty message that person is said to be “drinking the cool aid.” And yes ironically by being as ill-informed as you are you have proven your self the cool aid drinker you are that is typical of most Obama supporters....

Uh-huh, so just because I don't know who Jim Jones is that makes me ill informed? To me it means I either forgot, or am not interested enough to remember. That's all it means. Nothing more, nothing less.

It is the same as not knowing who Timothy McVey, Benedict Arnold, Samuel Alexander Mudd (my name is Mudd / made me feel like Mudd) are. All are American traitors whose names have entered into local vernacular as a result of there hideous deeds.

By definition informed means you have the information. Whether you simply forgot or were not interested enough to care it is the same you do not have the information ie you are ill-informed.

If I remember my History, Samuel Alexander Mudd was a physician in the 1800's that helped conspire with John Wilkes Booth in the Assasination of President Lincoln. He was arrested for it.

It is also important to note that he had no interest in the Iphone! Just going by gut feeling on this one!

McCain smart? Picking Sarah Palin was really smart, cheating on his wife who waited for him while he was in a prison camp was smart. I applaud his service to the country but that doesn't mean he is presidential material.

FYI

Not all conservatives are racist but most racists are conservatives.

Ya know, you sound like a very well informed guy. However, that doesn't mean you represent the average McCain supporter. Conservatives usually care about 2 things politically: Abortion, and Religion. If you're a candidate who is against abortion, and very christian, you can basically count of at least 50% of the conservative votes, and that's a "conservative" guess.

Realistically, you are an exception to the general rule of conservative intelligence. Be happy about that, but realize that most conservative people rely on their church to tell them who to vote for, and don't actually do non-bias research.

And, also, really, "traitors" to america is a little... silly to say. They're traitors to humans. Not america.

I know who Jim Jones is, I know what happened at Jonestown, and I voted for Obama. Don't use these forums to bash those who may or may not have a different political opinion than you, it just makes you sound ignorant.

Are you insane? The reason obama was elected is because he is for the cfr and the bilderberg group ! He is for the federal reserve and he is for screwing this country up all together! Can we say the socialist are here? Change is all obama is going to leave us!!

Actually, the answer to that question must be no. Not because we are never satisfied but because we are hardly every completely satisfied. Usually when we demand something, its because our back has hit the wall. We cant take it anymore and we push forward. The problem then becomes, what to push forward on.

Cant ask for everything cause then you might get nothing. So we ask for a small chunk. Yet, we know that small chunk wont cut it. However, we accept it anyway and convince ourselves "Its a start". Did you read that right? Yeah, "Its a start!". Meaning once we get our foot in the door, we will be returning to ask for the rest. Satisfied? Yes, we are. Completely satisfied? No, never. Not unless you do it yourself the way you picture it.

Technically, Bush senior had 4 years as President. Unless you count his years as VP, in which he had 8. So that's 12 total for him alone. But I digress. This is about cell phone communication, not about the Presidency. You wanna talk politics, fine. But please do it in another forum. I hear the news sites have plenty of them.

The 8 Candidates where: Joe BIden, Hillary Clinton, Chrisopher Dodd, John Edwards, Mike Gravel, Dennis Kucinich, Barack Obama and Bill Richardson. Do your home work before you vote.

I didnt start the conversation of politics on a cellphone forum, but i did have the time to kill and a few things to say about it so i did.

This is how it started. If your going to say things like "This isnt a politics forum" its best if you do your homework and address the right people. I had the time to respond. So I did.
