1?

Anyway, regarding Jobs, he was a visionary but never felt the need to overpay so much for his products.

Steve Jobs was actually the son of a Syrian Muslim immigrant, who coincidentally was a Syrian political refugee. Sadly, Steve's maternal grandfather was a bigot who refused to allow his daughter to marry a Syrian Muslim, so she had to give the genius who was to change the world up for adoption.

We’ve been here before (fear of the immigrant), but now we have a particularly toxic mix...Fear plus right wing politicians stoking that fear plus a 24 hour media machine broadcasting those very fears to "America the Brave." Many people have pointed out the hypocrisy of the right. After 9/11 we renamed our national potato “freedom fries” in disgust at the French...who rightly argued that Iraq was a mistake and a potential quagmire that would only produce more terrorists. Who knew?

We also have more gun deaths every year (every month actually) than terrorist attacks, which they accept with a yawn and a shrug.

We all know what Jesus (the middle eastern savior) would have done, but that’s past history, right Rupert?

In listening to radio interviews today, I was struck by the tone of the French people who were interviewed (aside from Marine Le Pen, of course). “We are not afraid” they said.

America? Be afraid, be very afraid. The right wing needs your fear because the demographics are against them.

I wonder if his genius would have outdone bin Laden had he been raised a muslim?

You really gonna blame Syria for that Max.

If liberals care so much for the innocent Syrians, why not secure their homeland for them.

Where do you get that. He was a horrible person. That's well known. I've never bought an apple product. Don't like them. And they are WAY over priced to boot.

Never begrudged him his wealth. Others want to over pay, what do I care. Spend your money however you like.

I don't care if Whole Foods customers tip big.

Lebanon was created as a nation for the benefit of its Christians. Syrians still view Lebanon as merely a breakaway province, similar to the way that the Chinese view Taiwan.

For every 10,500 guns in the USA there is one gun related death (murder, suicide, accident).
