Re: Fahrenheit 9/11

"Ok, Apple hosts exclusive Fahrenheit 9/11 trailer, and just two months ago offered Al Franken's 'The Lying Liars and the Lies they Tell' for only $3, massive discount. Then Steve Jobs gives loads of money towards the Howard Dean campaign. Ok, I'm a democrat and a mac user, but dosn't that seem more odd than Moore's film? Just a thought to chew on."


Most likely Apple thinks there is something to be gained out of Kerry becoming president. They are most likely banking on Kerry being more for the smaller businesses, or if nothing else, at least putting caps on large corporations such as Microsoft. They know that Bush wouldn't do that given his ties to big businesses, such as Microsoft, and so this would help Apple immensely in the long run and could definitely be the reason they are donating money to the campaign. In any case, it's nothing comared to the money that Bush is accepting from the oil companies.
