I have never understood how Rush can be such an Apple fanboy.

This is one of the worst left-wing companies out there after GE.

I enjoy Rush but I suspect he is a capitalist more than a patriot.

I usually turn Rush off the moment I hear the word Apple :/

Rush's praise of Apple products got me to try out a Mac ... and I have never looked back.

The difference between Microsoft's products and Apple's is like night and day. (I don't use iPhones or iPods, but the MacBook beats every other laptop I've used. And forget about Windows, it makes me want to grab a bat and smash things a la Office Space.)

Sadly, the companies that make these products are all headed by leftists, so I can hardly "make a difference" with my purchasing dollars.

You seem to insinuate that Microsoft, by comparison, is some kinds of conservative paradise. Not so. In fact, Bill Gates (with his wife Melinda) is more of an activist for left-wing causes than Steve Jobs ever was. In fact, I would consider Steve Jobs more of a libertarian than a liberal.

That's one way of looking at it.

But, what Rush does goes against the liberal ideology. So, in a big way, Apple and Cook are paying Rush to destroy their agenda. Apple and Cook are supporting the conservative cause, even if they didn't intend it that way.
