George Bush: the Steve Jobs of world politics?!

Rush Limbaugh is a big mac user

My vote is with the no politics party. I quit reading the Cult of Mac site because the author injected too much of his own personal politics for my tastes. This site is better done anyways, please dont drive me away.

be nice, you guys. This is apple related on a slow news day, and it was obviously pertinent enough for you to post on.

It's a nice comparison. W "thinks different", and is mounting a "switch" campaign to help people suffering under legacy thugocracies and assorted non-democratic tyrannies to change their operating systems. I concur with the first poster though - keep your politics out of this blog. You don't do yourself any favors bringing left or right political opinions up. Nice job on the Apple blogging - keep it up.

The thing I like about Macs is that they are politically neutral. They work for Republicans and Democrats. I do think it is an interesting comparison between Jobs and Bush from a leadership standpoint. I agree with the poster that pointed out the consistency of the men to do what they say. (Although the 3 Ghz Powermac Promise was a little disappointing). Peace.

What has Bush delivered on? Weapons of mass destruction, peace in Iraq, Osama bin laden, the anthrax terrosist, fiscal conservatism, leaving no child behind. Bush ran several companies into the ground and now is doing the same for America. Jobs, on the hand, has deliveerd and produced at Apple and at Pixar. If Bush didnt have a name and had to create his fortune like Steve did, he would probably work in a gas station and spend half the time drunk and the other half working for someone else.

Interesting...I expected a Bush Bash Fest when I clicked on comments. It's good to see my fellow mac fans stick up for our President. While it is true you can compare similarities of just about any two people, you can make more than one between W and his Steveness. Being underestimated and continually dismissed, whilst all the while delivering the goods is just one of them.

this article makes a bit of sense. both men have a very forward view of things (weather you like it or not). Regardless of the fact that Jobs is a liberal, he tends to be very smart with his negotiation/person skills. when he says that there will be a new computer that will revolutionize the world, Apple does it. When Bush says we're sending Saddam to f*cking hell, the United States does it.

C'mon Barb, after all Steve has done for Apple, you can't find anything of which you approve? How 'bout the iPod, the Mac mini, iTunes. Really, Steve Jobs has a lot to approve of. Appears it's a slow newsday here as well.

For my part, as long as it's at least peripherally related to Apple, I'm fine with the politics (assuming you don't start quoting "Mein Kampf" or posting the lyrics to the Internationale or anything). Keep it up!
