Huffpost | 09/20/2011 | Vanity

Posted on 10/21/2011 5:49:09 AM PDT by scooby321

Steve Jobs went from world greatest inventor. The right way to build a corporation to greedy, bashed for his words to Obama your going to be a one term President.

The left in a nano second have begun to trash Steve Jobs for telling the truth.

Some saying they will never buy another apple product.

The guy was a bit of an arrogant d*ck.

But now I’m feeling like buying some Apple products all of a sudden.

This is how rotten our country has become, when we bash the newly dead who created millions of jobs worldwide. I don’t think we have much time left as a country, much less a superpower.

I never really understood why Steve Jobs was such a hero of the Left. He was an SOB towards his employees, he was tight-fisted with his money, never really gave to charity. Bill Gates tended to work side by side with his employees, gave millions upon millions to all sorts of charities, and from most accounts is a decent (if somewhat misdirected) person, and yet he is the evil capitalist.

Wow, I never thought I would be saying anything good about Bill Gates.

Capialist

What the heck is a Cap i alist? And why do you come out of the gate with a non sentence? My advice is if you are going to attack anyone that has made an extraordinary success of life and has employed millions, that you use spell check and find out how to write a sentence or forget about people reading your thoughts. Otherwise it looks as though a six-year-old broke into Mommy's or Daddy's FReeper account first thing in the morning while they were in the shower. Please for all of our sake learn to spell and to write before writing a vanity. No one is going to you or your ideas seriously otherwise.

You lost me at Cap i alist and complete made me ill with your first non sentence.

I am trying to figure out what you are saying here, but I am having trouble because I think you left some words out by mistake. Did Steve Jobs say something negative about Obama?

Exactly. Especially by some idiot that has horrid grammar and can’t spell or use a spell checker. That person is going far fast . . . not!

"The guy was a bit of an arrogant d*ck."

I've found that (generally speaking) many people who rise to the very top of their professions do so largely because of a deeply ingrained sense of self-confidence and self-assuredness. When they get there, they have trouble separating this from self-absorbtion. A few (mainly those with deeply seated Christian values) retain a humble sense of gratitude for their blessings and success, but many view their accomplishments solely as a product of self and from that point it's easy to view "lesser" persons with contempt.

Up to the release of the anti-Obama comments, I never saw any negative comments from the left.

Even though evil Apple has $76 billion in cash and is often endorsed by Rush Limbaugh.

Why even take time out of your morning to ask? The way I see it there has been a wreck on the side of the road of FreeRepublic threads—that has briefly caught your attention—and move on to a real thread with clear ideas expressed and spelled properly. Life is short. Let’s not waste a second on the functionally illiterate.

I bought a new pc recently, and gave Apple serious consideration. But the price was a bit much. I ended up with a Systemax - assembled and supported in the USA. So far, it’s awesome!

I’ve never understood why Jobs and Gates get a pass from the left, while Wall Street is pilloried.

Jobs and Gates got rich selling products that have parts made in Asia for pennies on the dollar.

Why do Big Hollywood and Big Sports get passes, too?

Why don’t the OWS people advocate limiting how much a movie or sports star makes like they want to limit what a Wall Street banker makes?

my language arts teaching wife would be proud.I believe that people--yes--can and should, with great flair and creativity, communicate their ideas. But such negligence of fundamental writing skills is insulting to your audience and demeaning to yourself.

Before attacking the successful of this world to a wide audience or any other time you post a FR vanity, have your lovely wife edit your work. Opposites truly do attract for a reason.

I think the man that co invented the Mac was able to use a spell checker, and certainly was no idiot.
