Reason.tv: iPhone and oBama - Two Expensive New Models (Reason.tv SOTU response!)
President Obama spent last year's State of the Union address celebrating spending programs past (hooray, stimulus!) and proposing new budget-busters. The shellacking Democrats took during the 2010 midterm elections was supposed to change all that, but at Tuesday night's SOTU Obama reverted to his "throw-money-at-every-conceivable-problem" self.
Yes he included some proposals to cut spending, but those are as likely to vanish as the spending hikes are likely to swell.
Could the "new" Obama be even more expensive than last year's model?

I looking forward to Verizon's deployment 4G cellular communications. There's a broadband USB modem out now, but the cell phones are still a few months away.
Why wait?

The font's wrong on the tv numbers AND the nameplate on the Belfour jersey. If I'm going to spend $150 on a knockoff jersey, it better get the details right. Otherwise I can get a counterfeit from China for less than $50.
Also, I think I'm one of like three hockey fans who reads these comments. Shouldn't you be spamming Deadspin or something?
And another thing... Once a week I can't post a comment because the spam-bots block me, but this shit gets through? Who's doing security here, the TSA?

But the State of The Union address was not focused on Jobs.
it was; but the focus was on jobs created in the private sector-oops
It seems to me that this site has been increasingly less substantive and more full of "shtick" That was pure shtick.
Where's the app for droid? For a teevee site called "reason"...
My local rag has the headline "Invest for the Future" as the theme of Obama's mouth-run.
Before you can invest, you have to cover your daily expenses; we're some 43% under that threshold, so there is nothing to invest.
